[bjam] Can I disable a test based on an environment variable?
I'd like to disable some serialization tests if I am running a ubsan build on travis. Is there a way in the Jamfile I can make it conditional on an environment variable, or should I define something like BOOST_DATE_TIME_UBSAN and put "if !defined" in the appropriate tests?

import os ; if ! [ os.environ BOOST_DATE_TIME_UBSAN ] { ... } This will work with both environment variables and -sBOOST_DATE_TIME_UBSAN=... on the command line. For the record, I think that disabling tests like this is a great way to make sure that the bug never gets fixed. In Christ, Steven Watanabe

My intention is to get UBSAN goodness for DateTime which has uncovered some overflow issues in the special value handling. I cannot easily complete fixing these without disabling that test during UBSAN builds. I have already submitted a pull request into Boost.Serialization that runs UBSAN during the build and expect that will be enough to trigger resolution. https://github.com/boostorg/serialization/pull/87 https://travis-ci.org/boostorg/serialization/builds/331103563 Thanks, - Jim
