Some packages have tests that are meant only for upstream in certain conditions and are not meant to be ran during installing. As we have ARCH teams, couldn't we think a way in which TEST teams can be created? I mean, a bunch of devs only focused on making tests work or just restrict them? This team (or a Gentoo project) can work hand by hand with other teams and ARCH members.
