ignore entire folders in settings file

[metheoryt]

Is there a way to ignore some folders in project, like pageObject and stepObject folders?

+1 to this one. Currently, Webception theats StepObjects and PageObjects like tests - which is incorrect, only Cests/Cepts should be.

Actualy, it's quite easy to fix. Taken from here: http://stackoverflow.com/a/20501275
App\Lib\Codeception.php, method loadTests:

$exclude = $this->config['ignore'];
/**
 * @param \SplFileInfo $file
 * @param mixed $key
 * @param \RecursiveCallbackFilterIterator $iterator
 * @return bool True if you need to recurse or if the item is acceptable
 */
$filter = function ($file, $key, $iterator) use ($exclude)
{
    if ($iterator->hasChildren() && !in_array($file->getFilename(), $exclude))
    {
        return true;
    }
    return $file->isFile();
};

$files = new \RecursiveIteratorIterator(
    new \RecursiveCallbackFilterIterator(
        new \RecursiveDirectoryIterator(
            "{$this->config['paths']['tests']}/{$type}/",
            \FilesystemIterator::SKIP_DOTS
        ),
        $filter
    ),
    \RecursiveIteratorIterator::SELF_FIRST
);

Then this part is not required, as will be filtered in iterator:

if (! in_array($file->getFilename(), $this->config['ignore']) && $file->isFile()) {

Now you can include directories in codeception.php ignore as well:

'ignore' => array(
    'WebGuy.php',
    'TestGuy.php',
    'CodeGuy.php',
    '_bootstrap.php',
    '.DS_Store',
    '_pages',
    '_steps',
),

N.B. _pages and _steps are standard namings from Codeception native generator for PageObjects and StepObjects.
