Skip tests in Runiverse `build package` github action

[daniellga]

Hi!

I have 2 test functions. One that accesses audio drivers and the other that accesses a file from the built package and I am having these 2 tests failure only when building in Runiverse (they don't fail in my github CI or in my PC).

  ══ Failed tests ════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
  ── Error ('test_haudiosink.R:11:7'): haudiosink works. ─────────────────────────
  Error: PlayError: The requested device is no longer available. For example, it has been unplugged.

  [ FAIL 2 | WARN 0 | SKIP 0 | PASS 142 ]
  Error: Test failures
  Execution halted

So I decided to use skip_on_ci from testthat and it doesn't seem to work here anyway. What would be the correct approach to skip these 2 tests or even make them work?

The GA run: https://github.com/r-universe/daniellga/actions/runs/9635169628/job/26571713435 The repo I am trying to host in R-universe: https://github.com/daniellga/harmonium/

Thanks in advance!

You can use skip_on_cran() or condition on an environment variable MY_UNIVERSE for example.

Nice! It worked! Thanks again!
