implement weekly tests to test latest releases of dependencies of pypicongpu

Open SimeonEhrig opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

In #4627 we recognized, that the current pypicongpu tests has a side effect and can test the latest release of a dependency together with a code change in PIConGPU. In the bad case, the latest release of a dependency does not work and the CI failes because of it and not because of the code change. Therefore we restrict the versions of the requirements to a known range.

To test automatically new releases of the dependencies and avoid a python dependency hell, extra tests should be implement, which are executed weekly and tests versions outside of the version range.

It doesn't feel like something we should invest a lot of resources into. I'd go with the fix that was also used in #4628: Fix versions explicitly everywhere.
