Issue

I'm just trying to run unit test locally on my Mac...
(I'm not trying CI for now)

Any idea?

[ianfixes]

It seems to be having some trouble locating the Arduino executable. This may be a problem on my part, but I'm slightly confused because it works on my machine (where Arduino is installed) and Travis CI (where arduino_ci handles the installation from scratch).

Where is Arduino.app installed on your system?

[s-celles]

It's at /Applications/Arduino.app/
but after running bundle exec arduino_ci_remote.rb there's also Arduino.app in my project directory.

Should I really run:

bundle exec arduino_ci_remote.rb

to start local testing (without Arduino board connected) ?

[ianfixes]

Yes, arduino_ci_remote.rb is the best script to run -- the intention is to eventually write a script for local testing (that skips all the installation and environment-reporting stuff), but for now that script is what I use for both local and remote.

The fact that it's not finding /Applications/Arduino.app is very odd because I explicitly check there.

One way for me to troubleshoot this is for you to run a test branch on your machine. Can you replace your Gemfile with these contents?

source 'https://rubygems.org'
gem 'arduino_ci', :git => "git@github.com:ianfixes/arduino_ci.git", :branch => "2019-01-11_small_fixes"

That will point you at the code being tested in https://github.com/ianfixes/arduino_ci/pull/79

Running

$ bundle exec arduino_ci_remote.rb

open quickly my Arduino IDE (I just see splash screen a few seconds) and after

Attempting to download Arduino package with open-uri

is displayed on console

[ianfixes]

I bet I know the problem... I'm searching for an english-language string in the output, and it's possible that the Arduino IDE might be writing one in French.

What's the output when you run this from the console?

$ /Applications/Arduino.app/Contents/MacOS/Arduino --bogus-option

I wonder if/when arduino-cli https://github.com/arduino/arduino-cli will be officially released (not alpha) and used in Arduino IDE... it will probably help a lot

[ianfixes]

Yup, that was it. This patch (that I just pushed) should fix it:
ianfixes@95857c8

Can you reinstall the bundle and try again?
