import java.lang.annotation.*; 

/**
 * Annotation used to indicate that an otherwise discoverable test class should not be discovered.
 *
 * 
 * Note: This is actually an annotation defined in Java, not a Scala trait. It must be defined in Java instead of Scala so it will be accessible
 * at runtime. It has been inserted into Scaladoc by pretending it is a trait.
 * 
 *
 * 
 * ScalaTest will discover any class that either extends Suite and has a public, no-arg constructor, or is annotated with
 * a valid WrapWith annotation. If you wish to prevent a class from being discovered, simply annotate it
 * with DoNotDiscover, like this:
 * 
 *
 *  * import org.scalatest._
 * 
 * @DoNotDiscover
 * class SetSpec extends FlatSpec {
 * 
 *   "An empty Set" should "have size 0" in {
 *     assert(Set.empty.size === 0)
 *   }
 * 
 *   it should "produce NoSuchElementException when head is invoked" in {
 *     intercept[NoSuchElementException] {
 *       Set.empty.head
 *     }
 *   }
 * }
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * ScalaTest will run classes annotated with DoNotDiscover if asked to explicitly, it just won't discover them. 
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * Note that because reflection is not supported on Scala.js, this annotation will only work on the JVM, not on Scala.js.
 *
