NAME

Test::Slow - Skip test(s) that are too slow to run frequently

SYNOPSIS

Some test are too slow to run frequently. This module makes it easy to skip slow tests so that you can run the others more frequently. To mark a test as slow simply use this module:

use Test::Slow;
use Test::More;
...
done_testing;

To run just the quick tests, set the QUICK_TEST environment variable to a true value:

$ QUICK_TEST=1 prove --lib t/*t

The other approach is to disable slow tests by default and run them only when requested :

use Test::Slow "skip";
use Test::More;
...
done_testing;

To run even the slow tests, set the SLOW_TESTS environment variable to a true value :

$ SLOW_TEST=1 prove --lib t/*t
