No Way(?) To Disable Unnecessary Error (Which Should be a Warning?)

[machineghost]

I have some files with old tests from my previous test runner (Mocha). I have them completely commented out, but when I run Ava I get a ton of:

✖ No tests found in src/foo.spec.js, make sure to import "ava" at the top of your test file

Is there any sort of command line flag I can provide to tell Ava "yes I know those files have no tests, I'll fix them later, but for now please stop telling me?" It seems like that would be handy, as commented-out test files aren't actually harmful.

Also, regardless of the above, why are these errors (with red coloring and an X): if nothing is broken, shouldn't they be warnings instead?

Nevermind, found --failWithoutAssertions!

Actually, that didn't help :( Re-opening.

AVA considers it a problem if a test file (as determined by the, possibly default, glob patterns) does not contain any tests.

You could perhaps rename the file to foo.spec.skip.js or something similar that a negated glob pattern can exclude from the tests. Or import AVA and place test.todo('uncomment tests in this file') at the top.

Thanks. I still think --failWithoutTests=false option (or just making the existing --failWithoutAssertions option include such functionality) would make sense, but that's a good workaround.
