To skip a test using "Skip Testing" in Xcode, you can mark the test as skipped. This is useful when you have a test that you cannot fix immediately or when you are practicing test-driven development and the API is not yet functional. In Xcode, skipped tests are represented by a gray icon with an arrow. This allows you to acknowledge the test without removing it, ensuring that the code inside the test still compiles.
For more details, you can refer to the session Xcode essentials (25:09).
