Add Azure Pipelines for automated tests

Open pmetzger opened this issue 5 years ago • 6 comments

Travis is very unreliable for CI testing these days, and it's likely to get worse as they've lost a lot of staff. The MacPorts project has been very successfully using Azure Pipelines for the last few months as a secondary test system; it almost never has spurious failures. It would be good for us to set the same thing up for ocaml-community.

I'm also wondering about github actions, as they're baked in (although still in beta)?

Both might be a fine thing! I think it's important that we slowly phase out Travis though.

revisiting that, github actions are more robust these days, aren't they?

They are.

Travis is also very brittle and forces people to spend significant time maintaining a working CI test suite...

As mentioned in another thread, my experience with GitHub Actions has been bad and I don't see how it could ever be fixed. On the other hand, CircleCI has been working perfectly.
