Hi @mingwandroid ,
I just saw that some tests are failing because of the otool, which I really don't know how it works on osx, osx is not my cup of tea. 😅

ERROR :: Failed to run `/usr/bin/otool`.  Please use `conda` to install `cctools` into your base environment.
         An alternative option for users of macOS is to install `Xcode` or `Command Line Tools for Xcode`.

Should we install that cctools or should we skip the tests which need it?

I just saw that you are appending the conda path to each step, right? Doing the
https://github.com/conda/conda-build/pull/3810/files#diff-fec826feae04e51c0d94076385408bdcR121
eval "$($(Build.StagingDirectory)/miniconda/bin/python -m conda shell.bash hook)"

If you want to improve it you can do something similar which we are doing for windows:

conda-build/azure-pipelines.yml

Line 133 in 480aa03

Write-Host "##vso[task.prependpath]$ENV:UserProfile\Miniconda3;$ENV:UserProfile\Miniconda3\Scripts;$ENV:UserProfile\Miniconda3\Library\bin"

Write-Host "##vso[task.prependpath]$ENV:UserProfile\Miniconda3;$ENV:UserProfile\Miniconda3\Scripts;$ENV:UserProfile\Miniconda3\Library\bin"

or if you want to you can let it as it is and I will modify it in a couple of weeks, because I have in my todo list some improvements to do on our Azure pipelines.

Is Xcode installed on these images? Does anyone know? It is correct to fail if not, and we should add an xfail test for that probably, that's skipped if Xcode is installed (and not the stub exe), probably just run the test always though so we can do these inspections (does it link with that xcselect dylib?) without creating a new fixture?

Can I do proper activation rather than prependingpath? I'm not interested in avoiding activation, it's important we do this correctly.

Sure, as you want to do the activation is better to keep your code then

This is ready to go now from my side. A few failures on macOS python 3.8 @jjhelmus .. think they could be showing an issue with our builds.

Permissions thing on Windows, ok to merge @msarahan, @marcelotrevisani?

I think so!
I will mark that test as serial in a couple of days.

I think that is good to go from my side.
Very nice job @mingwandroid ! Thanks! 😄
for me osx is always a pain to make it work properly

It closes #3756
