Pants

Is there some configuration I can use to force a certain set of tests to run one after the other AND in the same batch with Pants, even when using `pants test ::`?

I have one project whose tests I don't have time to refactor for the time being. Setting `batch_compatibility_tag` on the tests does not solve the problem, but running them with `--debug` does.

The issue is that they re-use a service running in a Docker container. I can't dynamically change the environment variable used inside the container in order to facilitate usage of PANTS_EXECUTION_SLOT, and as a result I need them to run as if I ran `pytest` normally.

A different way to solve the problem would be:

Given the following folders:
```tests/
   e2e/
   integration/
   unit/```
Can I force `e2e` to run in batch only _after_ `integration` and `unit` have finished running?

Not that I can think of.  I didn't quite understand why you can't use PANTS_EXECUTION_SLOT? is it because you can't run multiple copies of the service?
