Set up backend tests on Windows

Open silverv opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

We already have a working CI solution for testing the backend on GNU/Linux, now we need to make it run on Windows as well. The most challenging part is to configure the NpCap driver because it requires the VM to be restarted.

@clyde-johnston could you please look into this?

I need more information on this request. The workflow created for issue #200 performs a build for Windows as part of a matrix with Ubuntu 22.04 and Ubuntu 20.04. These builds are broadly speaking the same. Please specify the requirement if the new workflow does not address this issue.

The Windows self-hosted runner with npcap has been setup. When running nox -s pytest the test fails with WinSock error [WSAEADDRNOTAVAIL] (see here for details). This requires some application debugging.
