A geo test's decimal comparison and fresh ubuntu-latest benchmarks

By RepoJournal · Filed · About Django · Composed from the cited sources · methodology

Two small commits landed across the Django org: a test-only fix in the GIS suite and a first set of benchmark results for ubuntu-latest.

Fixed decimal comparison in RelatedGeoModelTest.test_related_union_aggregate(). django/django

by Jacob Walls

Jacob Walls corrected the decimal comparison in RelatedGeoModelTest.test_related_union_aggregate(), so the assertion no longer hinges on how decimals are compared. Test-only change: nothing in django/django's shipped code moves, but the geo union-aggregate test stops being the flaky one.

Results for ubuntu-latest added [skip ci] django/django-asv

by Github Bot

The django-asv benchmark suite now carries results for the ubuntu-latest runner, committed by the GitHub bot with CI skipped. That extends the tracked runner matrix, so performance numbers for that environment have a baseline from this point forward.
