Sorry for not being more responsive. You're doing thorough work here and you deserve some better support from folks like myself. It's been a few years since I've run the full spectrum of luigi tests but it is my experience the tests take a long time to run, especially within a pristine python environment.
How long would you say it waits, and, do you see any significant cpu activity during this time in the python process, and, are there any INI files where you can enable debug logging?
Finally, while it's always GOOD to run these tests, given the goal of your change I anticipate the impact/risk is low enough where travis can run it for you and a code review would suffice. I just dont want to see this detail be a hangup for you thats all.
