github actions check failing for mac/linux after adding visual tests

Package development
1

I've just added some tests with testthat into my R package.

The devtools::check passes on my windows laptop. But then when I pushed to main, the pkgdown website fails with macos and ubuntu.

I'm just getting started with testing, so a novice at this. I've just added github actions in.

I think this error might relate to this. Not sure where you are supposed to put these lines of code?

Any ideas about how to make this work? If I can't get the website to update, then I'll need to remove the tests, which would be annoying...

That does not seem to have anything to do with pkgdown. Maybe your snapshots are platform dependent? I.e. I think you can't assume that the same exact .svg file is generated on all platforms.

It fails the checks after I added a bunch of visual tests of ggplot2 images using the vdiffr package.

So this is likely related to the source of the errors on mac and ubuntu.

Any ideas of how I can make this work, @Gabor?

Added skip_if(getRversion() < 4.1) before the vdiffr tests, and that fixed it

You don't need to run the tests to build the pkgdown site, so I don't see why that is the case.
