[easybuild] Install fails due to tests run despite --skip-test-cases --ignore-test-failure

[Loris Bennett]

Hi,

I am running

  eb GROMACS-2019.6-fosscuda-2019b.EasyBuild \
    --robot \
    --cuda-compute-capabilities=6.1,7.5 \
    --buildpath=/dev/shm \
    --tmpdir=/scratch/eb-build \
    --skip-test-cases \
    --ignore-test-failure

but the installation fails with

  [  FAILED  ] HardwareTopologyTest.HwlocExecute (35 ms)

Why is this test still being run and the failure not ignored?

It is a little difficult to see what is going on, because I am running
this as a Slurm job and the entire EasyBuild output ends up as just 3
lines in the Slurm output file:

  [build@admin slurm]$ wc -l < slurm-12012527.out
  3

:-/

Cheers,

Loris
