编译python make test_制作（从源代码安装）python，而不运行测试

I compiling python from source tar. All works good, but tests running 2 hours and two times. How to bypass these tests?

0:16:20 [178/405] test_inspect

0:16:26 [179/405] test_int

0:16:27 [180/405] test_int_literal

0:16:27 [181/405] test_io

0:19:09 [188/405] test_json -- test_itertools passed in 44 sec

As result

make 7724,86s user 188,63s system 101% cpu 2:10:18,93 total

I make its distribution like this

PYTHON_VERSION = 3.6.1

PYTHON_URL = https://www.python.org/ftp/python/${PYTHON_VERSION}/Python-${PYTHON_VERSION}.tar.xz

wget -O dl/Python-${PYTHON_VERSION}.tar.xz ${PYTHON_URL}

cd dl

tar xf Python-${PYTHON_VERSION}.tar.xz

mkdir -p dl/Python-${PYTHON_VERSION}-build/

cd Python-${PYTHON_VERSION}

./configure --enable-optimizations --prefix=$$(pwd)-build --cache-file=$$(pwd)/cache-file

This commands runs tests twice:

make -C dl/Python-${PYTHON_VERSION} -j8

make -C dl/Python-${PYTHON_VERSION} -j8 install

p.s. This is part of another make file.

解决方案

The configure option --enable-optimizations enables running test suites to generate data for profiling Python. The resulting python binary has better performance in executing python code. Improvements noted here

From configure help:

--enable-optimizations Enable expensive optimizations (PGO, etc). Disabled by default.

From wikipedia

profile-guided optimisation uses the results of profiling test runs of the instrumented program to optimize the final generated code.

In short, you should not skip tests when using --enable-optimizations as the data required for profiling is generated by running tests.

You can run make -j8 build_all followed by make -j8 install to skip tests once(the tests would still run with install target), but that would defeat the purpose.

You can instead drop the configure flag for better build times.
