I want to enable unittests only at the top-level of a module 
compilation.

If I have a module

     top.d

that imports

     dep1.d
     dep2.d
     ...

which all contain unittests, how do I compile top.d with only the 
unittests for top.d enabled?

I think the easiest solution is to use http://dlang.org/spec/traits.html#getUnitTests and to run the tests you want manually.

This is quite annoying I feel. There probably should be an option for the -unittest flag to only compile unittests for the source files I'm passing in, and not any of the tests in the -I import paths.

I very much agree.

This is because my project has grown beyond 30klines of code and at that scale not even D's speed is enough for getting fast incremental builds through dmd. Therefore I've split my project into separate build using scons. With good dependency design I've reduced the build time from around 12 (via one single call to dmd) to 2 seconds. I don't see any other solution for really large projects.

These kinds of modules are very different from the ones I'm working on. Especially the ones in https://github.com/nordlow/phobos-next This because many of my algorithms/ranges/containers are unittested with lots of combinations of template parameters (types) for robustness. This inevitable requires lots of CT-logic evaluation and of course takes long to compile. A compiler switch would significantly lower the iteration time in my workflow. 5-10 seconds => ~ 1 second. Could somebody at least outline where in the DMD source I should start digging for this?

Except implementing memoized execution of unittests into dmd. Which I have discussed previously :)

Version the unittests, perhaps. module depN; version (TestDeps) unittest { // ... } Then dmd -unittest -version=TestDeps if you want them run.

This doesn't make things easier. I want to disable the builtin unittests of the modules I've imported. This requires me to add a version(test_MODULE) unittest in each module named MODULE. This is really inconvenient.

You could anotate your user/top level tests and select only those with __traits(getUnittest,...) and hasUDA(). Unfortunately it seems that there's a flaw because in a program all the tests will be automatically executed once then again those that are anotated. --- module m; import std.stdio; enum USERTEST; USERTEST unittest // exeuted twice { writeln("bang"); } unittest // executed once { writeln("bing"); } void main(string[] args) { import std.traits; foreach(t; __traits(getUnitTests, m)) { static if (hasUDA!(t, USERTEST)) t(); } } --- But... A solution that would work for both a library and a program is this: --- module m; import std.stdio; enum USERTEST; USERTEST void test0() { writeln("bing"); } USERTEST void test1() { writeln("bang"); } unittest { // not even compiled } void runUserTests(Modules...)() { import std.traits; static if (Modules.length > 1) runModuleTests!(Modules[1..$]); else static if (Modules.length == 1) { foreach(member; __traits(allMembers, Modules[0])) foreach(o; __traits(getOverloads, Modules[0], member)) static if (hasUDA!(o, USERTEST) && (Parameters!o).length == 0) o(); } } void main() { runUserTests!m; } --- I think a DMD option should be added to allow the tests to be compiled but never called, something like -runTests. Because the first solution is much more attractive.

Actually the first solution works with: https://dlang.org/phobos/core_runtime.html#.Runtime.moduleUnitTester --- module m; import std.stdio; import core.runtime; enum USERTEST; USERTEST unittest // exeuted once { writeln("bang"); } unittest { writeln("bing"); } bool tester() { import std.traits; foreach(t; __traits(getUnitTests, m)) { static if (hasUDA!(t, USERTEST)) t(); } return true; } static this() { Runtime.moduleUnitTester = &tester; } --- So there's really no problem with selecting the top-level UT. Maybe it even works with other traits such as "parent". Or with a template that collects only the tests in a set of module like in the previous attempt (based on this:
