Appveyor : worth it? #728

Closed apetro closed 6 years ago

apetro commented 6 years ago

Seems like Appveyor is frequently false-failing in a way that's distracting rather than helpful.

appveyor-ftl

Something to be done to make it false-fail less? Time to give up on it?

It's mostly (but not entirely) conceptually redundant with Travis-CI, so maybe we wouldn't be giving up too much if we just turn it off.

I just now turned off the the requiredness of continuous-integration/appveyor/pr for the green merge button, which should at least reduce the indicator fatigue somewhat.

https://github.com/appveyor/ci/blob/master/scripts/appveyor-retry.cmd may be able to help

I'd vote no. uPortal-home has been adopted on Windows elsewhere, having continuous integration on Windows gives some level of assurances the uPortal home will continue to work for that adopter. Those assurances are brought with, what is IMO, a minimal level of additional effort on the part of developers.
