Travis was not successfully installing numpy with python<=2.6,
python<=3.3, or PyPy. I decided that it didn't make sense to use numpy
for all the tests, so instead I made new testing environments
specifically for numpy.
While I agree this is *far* from ideal, IMHO It is better to ignore them for now otherwise we hamper contributors with unrelated errors.
We should fix this before the next release.
#1989
Some time ago when we first added support for testing pytest on AppVeyor,
jobs in a build would not start immediately one after the other, as if AppVeyor
would schedule jobs from other builds (projects) in its VMs. So it made sense
at the time to reduce the number of jobs.
I have noticed in other projects that this behavior has changed, and jobs
in a build now start one after the other. Having a separate list then improves
visibility when the build fails, because we can see at a glance the failing(s)
tox environment(s).
* Changed "index" to be more similar to the README (#1708).
* Fixes numerous issues like missing documents, syntax errors, etc (#1829, #432).
* Mention all docs in "contents.rst" so it's easier for users to locate (#1112).
* Add doc generation and checking to Travis and AppVeyor, to avoid re-introducing errors.
Fixes#432, Fixes#1112, Fixes#1708, Fixes#1829
cx_freeze doesn't seem to be very well supported in Python 3.5.
Using pyinstaller instead and rename environment to "freeze" which
is a more generic term for freezing python code into standalone
executables.
Fix#1769
* Install pypy using chocolatey
* Enable coveralls test environment in AppVeyor
* Suggest maintaining build matrix in .travis.yml by using "tox --listenvs"
Fix#1254
- AppVeyor does not run matrix builds in parallel, so creating a matrix with the intent to
speed up the build will actually result in longer build times, as each matrix will execute
in a brand new VM.
- tox does not detect 64 bit installations in AppVeyor, it always installs interpreters
from C:\PythonX.Y, so there's no point to have 64bit builds
- No need for the auxiliary script "install.ps1" because all python versions we are interested
in are already pre-installed in AppVeyor
