Research direction
Start by reproducing the short summary with skipped tests under pytest 9.0.3 and compare its “Skipped” lines with xfailed output. Review the behavior discussed in #10457 and #5077 for prior context. Done means the summary displays each skipped test’s function name rather than only its file and line number, without changing the existing xfailed formatting.
