Since the tests keep track of how long they ran last time, maybe we can
make that sort of auto-tuning...?
Perhaps rather than "fast" - "slow" might be better because first, it'd
be fewer to mark, and also I think because of how we invoke & select things,
# ./check -g auto -x slow
would do what you want.
So is there agreement that "auto" by itself should include all tests
which are expected to pass (or not run due to dependencies) reliably?
Thanks,
