[R-pkg-devel] email misleading: checking CRAN incoming feasibility ... NOTE Maintainer

[Spencer Graves]

Hi, Uwe et al.:


       What's the preferred way to eliminate tests on CRAN that the 
maintainer still wants to run on other platforms?


       For several years, I've been using "if(!fda::CRAN()){...}". I've 
been told that I should NOT do that, but it has worked for me, and I 
haven't found anything better.  I've recently seen 
"testthat::skip_on_cran(...)", but I have yet to understand enough of 
how it works to actually use it.


       Thanks,
       Spencer Graves
