So I have situation when I need skip current test from test method body. Simplest way is to write something like this in test method.

if (something) return;

But I have a lot complicated tests and I need a way to skip test from methods which I invoke in current test method body. Is it possible?

There is an Assert.Inconclusive() method which you can use to nicely skip the current test. Check the docs. Basically it will throw an exception and will show this method as Skipped.

I used this as a programmatic check in my code inside the test method:

if (!IsEnvironmentConfigured())
{
   Assert.Inconclusive("Some message");
}

Here is the result:

! ShouldTestThisMethod [31ms]

Test Run Successful.
