[gdkrmr]

Is it possible to pass a parameter to tests? Something like:

(v1.0) pkg> test MyPackage TYPE=LONG_TEST

Also, might be kind of useful to check out this old post:

Standard ways to run common commands

Over the course of developing a project, there are certain commands that get executed all the time. These include running: Tests Subsets of tests The application’s main function How can we introduce standard ways to perform these functions? Also, a standard way to run functions would give: people a nice list of hooks to plug their initialization code. a way to warn people that their packages don’t meet REQUIRE specifications and other stuff

Thanks, this would be very useful feature for projects where the tests run longer than a few seconds!
