The packages which share a source should definitely be tested out. As
far as ones that depend on them test them out to your best ability. It
normally depends on computing power and whether they built previously or
not.

Some package groups have special needs. rust packages only really need
to pass their build phase, and anything that depends on them should just
keep working. I've never gotten a good result from java packages so I'll
build those out to the very end. Due to the way python works it can be
hit-or-miss.
