Please don't disable tests on gitlab-CI only. If they don't work in the CI then they might also not work on the user's local machine. And if they're disabled in CI then they're quite likely to bitrot and then a local user will find they're broken for some reason unrelated to whatever they were doing that made them want to run the tests. Also, if we need to disable a test for some reason we should file an issue in gitlab with the details, and include the gitlab issue URL in a comment next to where we're disabling the test. thanks -- PMM
