Research direction
Start by measuring the full test run and identifying which integration tests account for the delay. Read the test organization and any release or smoker-test configuration to determine how tests are categorized. Done means normal end-user testing completes in a practical time while the broader tests remain available for release or smoker runs.

Description
While updating Test2::Harness, I noticed it took a very long time to run all the tests.
It took me by surprise so I did not measure, but it ran for at least 15 minutes. From watching htop, it seemed like most of it was integration tests. My machine is not particularly slow, it's a T480 with i7.
Running this many tests on end machines is impractical, and may result in people installing the module with testing skipped, defeating the purpose. Please consider turning some tests into release-only or smoker-only tests.
