Discussion on: What do you do while waiting for tests to finish running?

If the tests are under 10 minutes, I usually stay within my IDE, and start cleaning up code and improving documentation - these are small quick things I could do but they are endless hahaha.

If it's any longer, I shift my tests to a secondary monitor and go do big tasks and come back to the tests when I feel like it.

Although sometimes I do get sucked into refactoring for too long and forget about the test...
