Decorators marks that a doctest should be skipped, for both python 2 and 3.
The IPython.testing.decorators module triggers various extra imports, including numpy and sympy if they’re present. Since this decorator is used in core parts of IPython, it’s in a separate module so that running IPython doesn’t trigger those imports.

This decorator allows you to mark a function whose docstring you wish to omit from testing, while preserving the docstring for introspection, help, etc.
Decorator - skip the doctest under Python 3.
