Usage

Example test_slow.py:

import pytest

def test_normal():
    pass

@pytest.mark.slow
def test_slow():
    pass

Normal pytest sessions skip slow tests:

(venv) $ pytest -v test_slow.py
========================= test session starts ==========================
collected 2 items                                                      

test_slow.py::test_normal PASSED                                 [ 50%]
test_slow.py::test_slow SKIPPED (need --slow option to run)      [100%]

===================== 1 passed, 1 skipped in 0.00s =====================
