Just dropping my testing workflow:

First, I test everything with (where [TestEnv.jl](https://github.com/JuliaTesting/TestEnv.jl) is installed globally):

```julia
julia> using Pkg; Pkg.activate("."); using TestEnv; TestEnv.activate(); include("test/runtests.jl")

```

For any further test runs, I do:

```julia
julia> include("test/subtests.jl")

```
