Description

It would be really useful to track the overall pytest execution time as a statistic on the repo. This is not something that can currently be captured via asv, but if we could create some kind of mock metric that is plotted alongside the other metrics, we could at least observe when there's a significant regression and potentially find a culprit.

This came up while addressing https://github.com/astronomy-commons/lsdb/pull/194

Research direction

Start by inspecting the repository's scripts that process ASV outputs and determine how existing metrics are represented and plotted. Then trace how pytest execution time could be obtained and represented as a mock metric. Done means the total pytest time appears alongside the other metrics and a meaningful regression can be observed.
