bpo-43888: Remove coverage builds from CI#25679
Conversation

Before this can be merged there are probably some changes required over on the devguide to go with this. @ammaraskar are you up to do a PR for that? We should probably drop the devguide mentions before we actually drop things. |
|
Sounds good, let me check up on what changes need to be made in the devguide. |
|
I never used this feature. |

Brett, the only mention I found in the devguide about coverage that seemed relevant to codecov was in the committing checklist, I made a PR for that here: python/devguide#685 The rest is a guide on how to determine coverage locally which should stay in the devguide. |
|
DevGuide PR has been merged. Thanks. |
|
@ammaraskar thanks for the PRs! @Mariatta thanks for merging the devguide PR! |
|
I missed it the same day, but now I had time to mention it, I usually check the coverage status to analyze and study more about construct languages. |

This missed |
We introduced code coverage a while ago as part of https://bugs.python.org/issue23721 and python/core-workflow#2 but it looks like this feature isn't really utilized by many people based on searching for "codecov" on github and bpo. These builds take way longer due to the instrumentation and this is cutting into valuable CI time. The builds are now also failing on master with the new timeout mechanism.
Let's just get rid of the coverage builds and see if anyone complains :)
