I, for one, would like to be able to control whether or not to run tests that take a huge amount of time to run. Some test suites are ridiculously comprehensive, and if we could have an option to disable only those, or even run a reduced test suite, that'd be pretty neat.
We've already had this discussion before [1] and there is no one-size-fits-all solution for tagging tests.
Ryan's plan only proposes to enable/disable tests based on whether they can run inside a sandbox. That much is doable. Trying to quantify the time a test suite will take to complete is impossible : different arches, vastly different CPU clock speeds, same for HDDs sizes and speeds, ... is impossible.
Basically, it boils down to "if you're running FEATURES=test, you should know what you're doing".
+1 on Ryan's idea Rémi [1] http://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/msg_145157.xml -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
