This doesn't seem to solve the issue for me. Could you try adding the test_upstream_development job to the commit workflow here?

ESMValTool/.circleci/config.yml

Lines 285 to 290 in 1c4920b

	workflows:
	commit:
	jobs:
	- run_tests
	- test_installation_from_source_test_mode
	- test_installation_from_source_develop_mode

to see if it works in CI?

it worked in GHA, let me pop it in Circle too

test_upstream_development

ah it doesn't work no more after you merged the Concorde PR, bud - was working fine before - you fix it 😁

The CMORizer tests check the log for certain messages. Since the log is now filtered, messages from the esmvaltool package were no longer included. Should be fixed by ESMValGroup/ESMValCore#2886.

OK it's whack-a-mole time here:

• matplotlib site is borked https://matplotlib.org/ so the docs are not able to fetch its inventory
• the Circle dev test now fails (and so is the GHA similar test) with a Core problem:

>           raise RecipeError("\n".join(errors))

E           do not provide the missing facet values. This will depend on the data source they come from, e.g. can they be extracted from the path for local files, or are they available from ESGF when when searching ESGF for files?

../ESMValCore/esmvalcore/_recipe/to_datasets.py:493: RecipeError

At least the WOA tests are passing 😬
@bouweandela you wanna merge this and tackle the timerange issue in a separate PR? 🍺

[valeriupredoi]

nevermind, fixed all that in #4252

Thanks V!
