Description of Changes
It seems that tests related to the LSP are failing on AppVeyor with this error:
This PR proposes to skip the problematic tests on Windows CI. Note that the tests are passing locally on my Windows 10 laptop.
Also this PR proposes to split the
test_mainwindow.test_help
in two so thatHelp
is tested independently when called from the Editor or from the IPython console. Otherwise, it is not possible to know if the test is timing out because of the action made in the Editor or in the IPython console.Unfortunately, after the split, I found out that both tests were timing out on AppVeyor, so they had to be skipped. Still, I think splitting the test in two is an improvement, so I'm proposing it here anyway.
