Limit test suite Workflow to only run on changes to Python files #1884

Open shenanigansd opened 1 month ago

shenanigansd commented 1 month ago

Add a filter to testsuite.yml to only run when .py files are changed.

This should cleanly coexist with the existing branch filter:

If you define both branches/branches-ignore and paths/paths-ignore, the workflow will only run when both filters are satisfied. - https://docs.github.com/en/actions/writing-workflows/workflow-syntax-for-github-actions#onpushpull_requestpull_request_targetpathspaths-ignore

Hmm, tests are a required check. Since we skipped them, that check will never pass. This is awkward.

The tests are skipped if the branch is named *notests*, can we use the same mechanism?
