[ci] consider removing OSX testing #840

Closed marscher closed 1 year ago

marscher commented 1 year ago

Arguments

  1. I do not think, we are using weldx on OSX, so there is no benefit in wasting CI time on this system.
  2. We do not provide C-extensions, so it is guaranteed that there are no binary (ABI) conflicts.
  3. We do not have any OSX specific Python code.
  4. All upstream libraries with extensions are very likely already tested against OSX.
  5. If something should ever fail on OSX, people can feel free to report it to us.

I agree that OSX testing is probably not needed

We could also move it over to a singly monthly scheduled run or similar

Is that trivially possible without replicating the whole testing job?
