We rely on VirtualBox running in a GitHub Actions macOS runner image for our functional (Cucumber) tests. There was a long-standing issue in the GitHub Actions runner image that caused VirtualBox to fail, breaking our CI builds. This issue has recently been fixed with a new version of the macOS runner image. actions/runner-images#8730 However, another GitHub Actions bug means that our CI builds are not getting the newest macOS runner image. So our builds continue to fail. actions/runner-images#8642 Until this is resolved, I am disabling functional tests in CI so that contributors aren't blocked by failing builds that they can't do anything to fix.
