Subject: building but skipping tests?
Date: Sat, 7 Aug 2021 16:31:41 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAJsg1E-kX=qDzDadzOoK1Z+FNiAzipE7qvp+WXqbfjT1GcLCoA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi, if I try to install a package and that may trigger building a
number of dependencies (when no substitutes for some reason but that
is outside the concern of this question), I notice that since the
build processes would run the tests by default, that takes a lot of
time.   I wonder if it is possible to skip tests when building
locally?   Of course running tests are good but if I am not a
developer of the packages being built running the tests may not be of
much utility to me.

Thanks for the info on this.
