We use mingw to cross-compile binaries for Windows, and wine to run the CI tests. It's quite nice to deliver Windows binaries and never need to touch Windows.

- dosshell 4y agoHow reliable is it? Have you encountered any tests that did not have the same result as on real Windows?
- Salgat 4y agoYeah that makes me nervous. At the very least just use a VM to test your production artifacts before deployment. Must not be a very important product they're releasing.
- rwmj 4y agoIt has never actually broken (or at least, no one has reported that if it did). But also it's an open source project, we provide the exe's best effort, if it's important you can compile it yourself. I have zero interest in using Windows even for one second if I can help it.
