Hy Paddy,
I had two ways to speed my testbed.
The first for me was caching. But this depends on how your class works and
if caching is neccessary.
The second way is, to add an parameter to TestConfiguration.php which skips
slow tests...
See the testbed of Zend_Date for an example on how this can be done.
if (!defined('TESTS_ZEND_I18N_EXTENDED_COVERAGE') ||
TESTS_ZEND_I18N_EXTENDED_COVERAGE == false) {
$this->markTestSkipped('Extended I18N test skipped');
return;
}
Maybe you can benefit from it
Greetings
Thomas

Hi Paddy,
I'm unsure whether we have a well-defined policy on what is "too slow"
to be run in the default configuration of the unit test suite. I tend to
think that we should as many effective unit tests as possible, where
they are not redundant, under the default configuration.
Recently, Thomas was able to increase the speed of the Zend_Date tests
by using a cache, if I recall correctly. There may also be other methods
that can help speed up unit tests, depending on the situation.
I hesitate to advise you to leave unit tests out of the default
configuration because of slowness. I think it would be best to have the
tests included first, and try to find ways to optimize them if
necessary. That said, if later we find that we must leave certain tests
out, this is easily accomplished by using constants in
TestConfiguration.php.
The web service and database components have some examples of how to
skip tests fairly nicely.
Best regards,
Darby

Sort of related ;).
I committed Zend_Crypt earlier today (thanks for getting svn back!).
Some of these tests are really (and I mean really) slow because most
systems by default only have BCMath installed. Having DiffieHellman run
for 30 secs is not unusual. Is there any specific practice in place
addressing slow tests? Enough of these can become a nuisance if they are
padding test run time a lot. In a few weeks I expect to add RSA to the
mix (even more slowness).
I'll enable the tests later in the Incubator Zend AllTests file - but if
there's any concern here let me know.

Hi Andries,
Thanks for the report! I have committed some changes in revision 6589
that solve the problems running the incubator AllTests suite for my
environment:

Please test and let us know your mileage.
Best regards,

Hi,
I would like to bring this to your attention:
The current tests folder in the incubator seems to be really messy. When
running AllTests.php, it seems like the configuration file from the core
tests is included as well, causing constants to already be defined, and
producing tons of error messages. I have attached report.txt, which
shows the current errors.
There also seem to be some missing Zend_Db skiptests.
Anyone cares to fix these issues?
Best,
