raphinesse commented on issue #627: CB-14211: Run test suite in PowerShell and
cmd.exe
URL: https://github.com/apache/cordova-lib/pull/627#issuecomment-405623257
While I think that it's a good idea to test in different shells, this
doubles the amount of jobs, right? Currently, AppVeyor tests take *very* long
already. Since the jobs are only executing sequentially and some of our tests
are awfully slow, it takes about **one hour** for them to finish. So with these
changes I'm expecting a runtime of about **two hours**. :disappointed:
IMO, we should only increase the number of jobs if it has no drastic impact
on the overall build time.
I'm currently working on cleaning up the biggest runtime-offenders, so that
we hopefully can reduce our test duration drastically as a next step. However,
I suspect these changes are still a few weeks from being ready to land. Right
now the tests take about 480s on my machine with the two biggest offenders
amounting to 305s. Say I can reduce the overall run time by 50% that would
still leave us with a 10 minute run time per job on the CI. Which would still
be 30 minutes without this change or 60 minutes with it. Which I would still be
inclined to avoid.
I guess what I'm trying to say is: I would very much prefer to find some way
to test this with less impact on the CI run time. Like excessive unit tests for
`superspawn` for example.
