    For some of our longer running tests at work, I check for an environment variable named "FAST_TESTS" and skip long running tests using that. The start of my test_all program looks like this (and takes a -f as an argument for fast tests)

    #!/usr/bin/perl -w
    use strict;
    use Test::Harness;
    use Getopt::Long;
    use Pod::Usage;

    GetOptions(
        'help|?'    => sub { pod2usage(-verbose => 2); exit },
        'verbose!'  => \$Test::Harness::verbose,
        'quiet'     => sub { $Test::Harness::verbose = 0 },
        'fast'      => \$ENV{FAST_TESTS},
        'include=s' => \my @include,
        'exclude=s' => \my @exclude
    );
