Two small testing questions

General Usage
1
  1. How to choose 0.6 for appveyor testing? nightly now points to 0.7
  2. Can coveralls.io be configured to display the highest coverage within a set of build?

See example at https://github.com/JuliaLang/Example.jl/blob/master/appveyor.yml.

No idea about your second question though. Isn’t that what Coveralls does by default?

i also thought that, but i see now in GitHub - JuliaGraphics/Cairo.jl: Bindings to the Cairo graphics library. a coverage badge of 85, while the build is (max) 89 JuliaGraphics/Cairo.jl | Build #242 | Coveralls - Test Coverage History & Statistics and 1 dedicated test is 80 only.

That’s a bug in the badge you’re seeing, maybe because of caching. I see 89% here (both in README.md and on Coveralls).

5

89% here too. I have also had troubles with the coverage badges being heavily cached and taken a long time to update. Perhaps Ctrl + F5 might do the trick for you.

6

but hasn’t this been moved to

and similar?

7

The URL has just been changed, the example will probably be updated soon (like all other Julia packages).

now i’m confused.

Both commits on may 17th:

https://github.com/JuliaGraphics/Cairo.jl/commit/5ea549dbfb18cb125671115e62ab852f53a90136

I think @staticfloat’s script missed a subset of packages. Not sure exactly what happened with it.
