Enabling clippy lint globally, but disabling it in test modules

help
1

At the root of my project I have

#![warn(clippy::as_conversions)]
#![warn(clippy::unwrap_used)]

And while this is useful, in almost every single test module I have to manually disable those warnings again. Would be nice if there was a simple global solution I could specify somewhere in Cargo.toml to skip doing this for tests.

There's allow-unwrap-in-tests, but can't find anything regarding the as_conversions lint.

Why putting tests into separate submodule and attaching clippy configuration to that submodule doesn't suit you?

It does, this is what I do actually!
The problem is that I have this written like 10 times, and I wonder whether there is a better way:

#[cfg(test)]
mod test { 
    #![allow(clippy::as_conversions)]
    #![allow(clippy::unwrap_used)]
    ...
}

Would #![cfg_attr(not(test), warn(...))] instead of just #![warn(...)] do what you want?
