        public boolean isSkip()
        Flag if the current exception marks a skipped method (true) or a failure (false). By default Subclasses should override this method in order to provide smarter behavior.
        Returns:
        true if the method should be considered a skip, false if the method should be considered failed. If not overwritten it returns true
