The checkResults framework is designed to automatically test BioConductor packages. As a package developer, how can I upload the experimental source version of a package to get test results from a specific test server?
Use case: Our package contains an error that started to appear only recently and only on Windows systems. The tokay1 server of checkResults documented the error in our latest BioConductor version. I would like to start the typical fixing workflow: Making changes, checking whether the error still occurs, making other changes if it does ... However, I am working on a MacOS laptop. I cannot easily use a virtual machine because I need MacOS accessibility tools due to a visual impairment which do not work well in conjunction with VMs. Also, I would rather not use an external service such as win-builder. In order to do that, I would need to hack the DESCRIPTION
file of the project. At the win-builder page it is stated clearly that this should not be done. Does anyone know how I can upload my local code to tokay1 for testing or, if not, could you help me out with a good alternative?
Thanks
