As noticed recently, the version of MacOS we're using for unit testing during GitHub Actions workflows is outdated; we're using MacOS 13 instead of the latest stable version labeled as
macos-latest, which currently refers to MacOS 14.This changeset updates the unit tests workflow to use
macos-latest(MacOS 14).I'm tempted to try removing some of the workarounds for MacOS in
tox.iniat the same time; I think it depends on a sense about how many developers we may still have using MacOS 13 themselves. It's probably worth testing during this pull request -- whether it's sensible to remove the workarounds, assuming tests pass with them removed on MacOS 14, however, is a seperate question.
