Haskell-CI: How to test with specific test suites?

#1

Setting up Github actions for testing a haskell project, I am struggling for the lack of haskell-ci’s documentations.

I want to disable some tests on Github actions, since some functionalities require hardware, db connections, etc. Lost on how to achieve this.

Would anyone adept in haskell-ci shed some light for me, please? Thank you!

You can use a cabal flag to disable a test suite with buildable: False. No haskell-ci configuration needed.

Is it fine to use cabal flag for this purpose? The flags are quite scary to me.

Why wouldn’t it be fine?

For example, I use flags exactly for this purpose in generic-random.
