Summary:
I would love XCTest to steal a page out of JUnit 4 and Android Studio’s book and add some kind of way to mark that certain tests should be ignored, then display those ignores to the user. 

The documentation for the @Ignore annotation is available here: http://junit.sourceforge.net/javadoc/org/junit/Ignore.html - perhaps something similar to the new nullable/nonnullable annotations could be used. 

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Write a test
2. Have some known issue that makes you need to temporarily disable the test (usually: Someone broke something on the server)
3. Realize you have to either use the DISABLED hack (described here: http://www.objc.io/issue-15/xctest.html) or comment out your test until that issue is addressed.

Expected Results:
1. Write a test
2. Have some known issue that makes you need to temporarily disable the test.
3. Add ignore annotation, have test skipped and visibly marked as skipped. 

Actual Results:
(see “steps to reproduce”)

Regression:
None

Notes:
This has actually come in SUPER handy with my android testing - the tests being marked as ignored make it clear that those tests exist but are not being run. See attached screenshot.
