It's unfortunate that you can't force a feature for a specific test instead. required-features will skip them instead. I'm not sure what's worse, a compilation error if the feature is not passed or silently skipping the test...

Regarding the rust-analyzer config, I'm hesitant to add it to the repo since not everyone uses vscode and I always have it enabled and only turn it off for specific projects that have issues with it (which is rare since it's not good practice to have incompatible features).

I think it would be great if we could find a way to force a feature flag for a test or document that tests require the mint feature instead.

Let me know what you think.

force a feature flag for a test

Unfortunately this doesn't seem to be possible. Unfortunately you can't enable features on yourself in a dev dependencies. We could split out the integration tests into it's own package, which could force enable features.

What do you think of this solution?

I think it's the best solution we have right now - thanks for proposing it!
