Describe the solution you'd like

Would like test suite to run in more supported platforms than just the one Linux x64.

dhiaayachi commented 2 months ago

Thank you for the feature request! We appreciate your feedback. Currently, Temporal's test suite runs only on Linux x64. While we are working on expanding test suite support, here are some workarounds for you:

Docker: You can use Docker to run the Temporal test suite on other platforms. This will allow you to run the tests in a containerized environment that simulates the Linux x64 environment. [Link to Docker documentation: https://docs.docker.com/]
Cross-compilation: You can attempt to cross-compile the Temporal test suite for other platforms, although this might require significant effort and might not be fully supported. [Link to cross-compilation documentation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross_compilation]

We will keep you updated on any progress made towards supporting additional platforms in the future.

Thank you for the feature request! We are always looking for ways to improve Temporal.

While we currently only support Linux x64 for our test suite, you can run your Temporal applications on other platforms.

We are actively working on expanding platform support for the test suite. In the meantime, you can run your Temporal applications on other supported platforms by using our client libraries: https://docs.temporal.io/docs/sdk/.

Thank you for the feature request! We appreciate your feedback and are always working to improve Temporal.

Currently, the Temporal test suite runs on Linux x64. While we don't have support for running the test suite on other platforms right now, you can explore using a Docker container with a specific OS and architecture. This can allow you to run the test suite on a different platform.

Let us know if you have any further questions or need more assistance.

Thank you for your feature request! We appreciate the feedback and understand the desire for broader platform support in our test suite.

Currently, Temporal focuses primarily on Linux x64 for its testing environment. However, you can contribute to expanding this coverage by:

Creating tests for your desired platform: You can create tests specifically for your chosen platform and submit them as pull requests to the Temporal repository. This helps ensure our codebase is compatible with your environment.
Running tests on different platforms: You can run our existing test suite on your desired platform by adjusting the build configuration and dependencies. This may require some manual adjustments.

We are actively exploring ways to enhance our test suite's platform compatibility, and your feedback helps us prioritize future development efforts.

Thanks for the feature request! We appreciate your suggestion to expand our CI testing coverage.

Currently, Temporal's CI only runs on Linux x64. However, you can explore setting up your own CI environment to test on other platforms, like Linux ARM, macOS x64/ARM, and Windows x64. You can find more information on building Temporal from source here.
