stack build --enable-tests

[dbp]

I'm using stack for a project, and having it run the test suite on CircleCI (the config file is here, if anyone else wants it: https://gist.github.com/dbp/bef96402ea07001dfed2).

One issue is that the caching mechanism runs before the test suite runs. This generally makes sense, but it is a problem with how stack handles test suites. In particular, stack build doesn't install libraries needed for the test suite, only stack test does.

Is there a way to install test dependencies without running the test suite?

There's stack test --no-run-tests, which should do what you want.

#568.

@snoyberg Was that added since 1.2.0? It isn't recognized as a command for me (and isn't in the options printed by stack test --help)

Yes. stack lives deeply on the bleeding edge :). See #517 for when this was added.

[dbp]

Ahh, I see. I'll look out for it in the next release :) Overall, stack is great!

Thanks!
