Remove macos-latest job matrix from Test CI

As in the actions/setup-python#860, some Python versions aren't available in the macos-latest os.

@hasansezertasan thank you for your contribution. I need to find why the lint test fails. I suspect it is a change in the latest version of Black. I will need to make time to dig into it, but if you have any information that can help, I would appreciate it and perhaps get this merged faster. Please let me know. Thank you!

I already tried to find the reason why the lint test failed but couldn't, so I don't have any information about that. Good luck! 🙏

You are most welcome 😇.

Hey @stevepiercy, do you have any progress on the issue?

[stevepiercy]

I no longer use deform in any of my client projects. I've pinged the other maintainers here @miohtama @mcdonc @ericof to see if they have any interest in taking it on.

We could also take on new maintainers. Would you be interested?

I see, it is very sad to hear this.

I might be but I don't think I'm there yet 🥺. Can you please re-run the workflow so I can check out what's wrong 🤓?

[stevepiercy]

@hasansezertasan GitHub lacks a way to rerun a workflow whose logs have expired. I'm going to close and reopen this PR to see if that jiggers the switch. If not, then you can push a commit to your branch, and that should trigger the build, or at least let me know that I need to approve a run.

[stevepiercy]

Yup, closing and reopening this PR did the trick. @hasansezertasan CI results should be available in a few minutes.

I seemed to pass the Build and test / Lint the package job but there are new errors in different jobs.

I tried to bump the setup-python action but it didn't work.

Here is a related issue: actions/setup-python#860

[hasansezertasan]

I don't think Pylons/hypatia#19 is the best solution... What do you think we should do here @stevepiercy?

[stevepiercy]

@hasansezertasan why do think Pylons/hypatia#19 is not the best solution? What would be better? I have no idea. @Pylons/deform-colander-developers maybe y'all can weigh in?

I rarely run my CI tests on macos-latest, so I don't know the reasoning behind running these tests on macos-latest. Finally, I won't be able to tell if it's a good approach. Ultimately, we are skipping tests for four Python versions on macos-latest.

If this approach is acceptable, there should be a reminder that this workaround should be fixed as soon as actions/setup-python#860 gets fixed.

One more thing, if pylons devs decide to accept this CI fix, I should open another PR for translations and remove translations from this PR.

Many developers who use Deform in their apps use macOS on their system while developing. The macOS CI runs ensure that Deform will work on those systems.

Finally, I won't be able to tell if it's a good approach. Ultimately, we are skipping tests for four Python versions on macos-latest.

We can only test on what is available at the time. Agreed that it is unfortunate not to test on Python 3.11 or 3.12, but when GitHub fixes the issue, we can add it. I don't think pypy-3.10 ever worked on macos-latest.

At this time, we want to run CI on Python 3.8 - 3.12 and PyPy 3.10, whenever possible.

If this approach is acceptable, there should be a reminder that this workaround should be fixed as soon as actions/setup-python#860 gets fixed.

Yes, please correct a new issue for this item.

Agreed.

Thank you for your diligence! We really appreciate your efforts.

@tseaver I'd appreciate your review of this PR when it is ready.

Well, we just deleted ci test for macos-latest 😆.

Thank you for your diligence! We really appreciate your efforts.

You're welcome 🤗. I'll update the contents of this PR and rename it. I'll let you know when it's done 👍.

[hasansezertasan]

@stevepiercy, I think it's ready to review. I'm not sure if the title follows the right convention for you people, so feel free to update it as you want 🚀.

[stevepiercy]

@hasansezertasan would you please take a look at @digitalresistor's recent changes to Waitress for CI, updated yesterday? They figured out several issues that will help with this PR.

Not everything needs to be ported over, and some stuff may need to be adapted. Thank you!
