Maybe do it the other way around? Define INSTALL_AUTOMATED and INSTALL_INTERACTIVE environment variables that get set during installation, so author tests run by default and can be skipped when installing. That does require touching more infrastructure, though. But it should solve the problem long-term, because by doing it that way, excluding tests not meant for end-user installation would not require assinging names up front for every phase in the lifecycle of a module and skipping each of them explicitly.
