Perhaps a simpler fix is to add a "ci" Mix task to your projects that:
1. sets MIX_ENV to "ci" if not set 2. invokes "mix test" Another option is to relax the check we have inside "mix test" and only raise if you are accidentally trying to run tests inside the "dev" environment. Then you could change the preferred_cli_env env for the test task directly in your mix.exs.
