In cases like these, we're often guilty of not finding something else to do in the meanwhile. There's almost always something productive one could do, even something so simple as taking a quick look at your open issue tickets and decide which ones to queue up next, or writing a quick email that you've been putting off. The reason you don't do that is because you're looking for an excuse to take a break and aren't motivated to look for other tasks.

The concentration level for unit test runs is distracted much more if your thought process is preempted by another work task, no matter how trivial. There’s zero fall out from surfing the WWW for a few mins. A case where it’s more productive to be skiving.
