files that pass are reported as skipped

[Michel Samia]

Is it a feature, or a bug?

This is expected -- results are cached and if a file did not have any issues and has not changed, it will not get retested. You can force retesting if you prefer by telling pytest --cache-clear

Thanks, I'll use this option in jenkins to avoid increasing number of skipped tests reported (which actually means disabled tests which means technical debt in the project).
