[matplotlib-devel] How to spell control

2013-08-01 Thread Matt Terry

It would be nice to have mpl tested on a few different environments. The obvious ones are: clean macos macos + brew (py2/py3) macos + macports (2.6, 2.7, (3.1?), 3.2, 3.3) I started a repo to install these environments on travis CI's mac environment. I don't have all the bugs shaken out of the

That is handy information. I'll start adding a python.org target. How broad coverage do we want? 10.6, 10.7, 10.8 system, python.org (2.7, 3.3), brew, macports virtualenv, no virtualenv with/without third party X The testing matrix blows up pretty quickly. For those of you with longer memories,

My mac testing hasn't picked up on this, but I don't think we have any tests that actually draw to the screen. I have noticed a i386 linking error, but haven't gotten to it. Is there an automated way to test this? Something like: Make a simple plot show() close the window after 10s. -matt On Sep
