How do you mark a Cucumber Scenario as Pending

How do I mark a cucumber scenario as pending so it doesn\'t get counted as a passed?

Scenario: Guest should not see edit link
# pending implementation

In addition to averell's answer, you can exclude scenario tags when running cucumber.

If @todo and @wip are tags you want to use for scenarios that are work in process or just mark pending scenarios, run your features like:

cucumber --tags ~@todo --tags ~@wip

If you're using Guard do something like this:

guard 'cucumber', :notification => true, :all_on_start => true,
                      :cmd => "bundle exec cucumber", 
                      :cli => "--tags ~@todo --tags ~@wip" do
   watch(%r{^features/.+\.feature$})
   watch(%r{^features/support/.+$})  { 'features' }
   watch(%r{^features/step_definitions/(.+)_steps\.rb$}) do |m|
     Dir[File.join("**/#{m[1]}.feature")][0] || 'features'
   end
end
