This uses the tests matrix to pass through
ubuntu-latest
as the default runner, with an override to use theubuntu-22.04
runner for PHP 7.0 tests.Proposed changes:
As of yesterday, our tests on
trunk
started timing out:https://github.com/Automattic/jetpack/actions/workflows/tests.yml?query=branch%3Atrunk
We use
ubuntu-latest
in our workflows, and that runner is now using Ubuntu 24.04:actions/runner-images#10636
For some reason, PHP 7.0 + Ubuntu 24.04 has major network issues, which results in double the time to run (and in most cases, a timeout). Given nothing obvious from our end is causing this and support for PHP 7.0 will be dropped with WP 6.7 (mid-November), it's easiest to just switch to the old runner (
ubuntu-22.04
) for PHP 7.0 tests.Other information:
