MacOS action hangs

[randy3k]

Would you have an idea what could be the case here? Did you maybe happen to see it happen in other projects?

Unfortunately no... my package tests are working:

You might try https://github.com/mxschmitt/action-tmate which makes debugging a bit easier.
Have to sleep now, let me see if I could find something to look into it when I wake up. :)

I've logged in to the runner with tmate and discovered that the test was frozen at Test if no json is found..

PS: UnitTesting currently does not handle the case that any tests are frozen indefinitely. Perhaps we should add a timeout, say 5 minutes, for each test case. At the same time, the GitHub UI is not responsive if the underlying program is blocked. It is why you couldn't see which test case was frozen from the web.

FYI, you could run the tests with the following two lines via tmate.

cd "$SUBLIME_TEXT_PACKAGES/EasyClangComplete"
python3 ../UnitTesting/scripts/run_tests.py EasyClangComplete

I have pushed some update to the action scripts. If you re-run the tests, you should see this:

Oh, man! Thanks for all the time you've put into this, I'll check it out from here on. 🙏

Ok, as always, the issue was found between the screen and the back of the chair. Somehow in Github actions on MacOS an error surfaced that I did not see before. The reason for the hand was that because of the way some non-existing paths were formed MacOS wanted to access network volumes for those. With GUI MacOS would prompt the user and in the CI it would just hang. Thanks a lot for bearing with me and for your help in figuring this out! 🙏
