+# CREATE EDGE IF NOT EXISTS Enhancement Test
+
+This document describes the expected behavior of the enhanced CREATE EDGE IF NOT EXISTS functionality.
+
+## Changes Made
+
+1. **Modified ExecResp structure** in `meta.thrift` to include an optional `skipped` boolean field
+2. **Updated CreateEdgeProcessor** to set the `skipped` flag when edge creation is skipped due to IF NOT EXISTS
+3. **Enhanced MetaClient::createEdgeSchema** to check the `skipped` flag and return -1 as a sentinel value when creation is skipped
+4. **Improved CreateEdgeExecutor** to provide different user-friendly messages for created vs skipped edges
+
+## Expected Behavior
+
+### Before Enhancement
+```sql
+CREATE EDGE IF NOT EXISTS follow(degree int);
+-- Result: "Execution succeeded" (even when the edge already exists)
+```
+
+### After Enhancement
+```sql
+-- First execution (edge doesn't exist)
+CREATE EDGE IF NOT EXISTS follow(degree int);
+-- Result: 
+-- +----------------------------------+
+-- | Result                           |
+-- +----------------------------------+
+-- | Edge 'follow' created successfully |
+-- +----------------------------------+
+
+-- Second execution (edge already exists)
+CREATE EDGE IF NOT EXISTS follow(degree int);
+-- Result:
+-- +------------------------------------------------+
+-- | Result                                         |
+-- +------------------------------------------------+
+-- | Edge 'follow' already exists, creation skipped |
+-- +------------------------------------------------+
+```
+
+## Technical Details
+
+- The `skipped` flag in `ExecResp` indicates whether an operation was skipped due to IF NOT EXISTS
+- MetaClient returns -1 as a sentinel value when creation is skipped
+- CreateEdgeExecutor provides different result messages based on the response value
+- The enhancement maintains backward compatibility while providing clearer feedback to users
+
+## Testing Scenarios
+
+1. **Create new edge with IF NOT EXISTS**
+   - Should display "Edge 'name' created successfully"
+
+2. **Create existing edge with IF NOT EXISTS**
+   - Should display "Edge 'name' already exists, creation skipped"
+
+3. **Create existing edge without IF NOT EXISTS**
+   - Should fail with appropriate error message (existing behavior)
+
+4. **Create new edge without IF NOT EXISTS**
+   - Should display "Edge 'name' created successfully"
