Tests are tickled from a runner script such as either one of
tests/doRUnit.R
tests/testthat.R
so you have an entry point to control for environment variables.
Travis clearly documents what theirs are -- so you could just turn it off --
and I have opted (years ago) for a more endogeneous scheme of suppressing
tests on CRAN based on version numbers (as I suppress tests when version
numbers are "release-style" form 'a.b.c', but then run the tests when the
version number is "dev-style" ie a.b.c.d).
You can alternatively check for CRAN via an env.var; I forget what it is
called and cannot grep for it as my scheme does not need it. WRE may tell you
what it is.
