Hi @viusic,

Thank you for doing this. After a quick look, It looks like a good beginning but it is missing DIPY installation and test.
you might have to test that locally and adjust some tests.

Hi @skoudoro,
I have added DIPY installation and test to the s390x_test.yml file. Please do let me know if there is a scope of improving the code.

Hi @viusic,

Do you have an update on this? thank you for your future feedback

hi @skoudoro,
Over the past few days, I've been actively working on the project and have made some significant changes. I've updated:

1. the updated checkout version:
   jobs:
   test:
   runs-on: self-hosted
   strategy:
   matrix:
   architecture: [ s390x ]
   steps:
   • name: Checkout Repository
     uses: actions/checkout@v4
     with:
     repository: 'dipy/dipy'
     ref: 'master'
     fetch-depth: 1

I have designed it to run on a self-hosted runner, which means it can be run on any machine that meets the required hardware and software specifications. The workflow is also configured to run on a matrix of different architectures, including s390x.

2. to install dependencies:
   - name: Install Dependencies
   run: |
   sudo chroot /srv/chroot/sid-390x apt-get update
   sudo chroot /srv/chroot/sid-390x apt-get install -y build-essential
   sudo chroot /srv/chroot/sid-390x apt-get install -y libc6-dev-s390x
   sudo chroot /srv/chroot/sid-390x apt-get install -y libstdc++-6-dev-s390x
   sudo chroot /srv/chroot/sid-390x apt-get install -y libgcc-s1-s390x
   sudo chroot /srv/chroot/sid-390x apt-get install -y python3 python3-pip
   sudo chroot /srv/chroot/sid-390x pip3 install -r /srv/chroot/sid-390x/dipy/requirements.txt

3. to install DIPY:
   - name: Install DIPY
   run: |
   cd /srv/chroot/sid-390x/dipy
   sudo chroot /srv/chroot/sid-390x python3 setup.py install

During this time, I've been investing some of my efforts in crafting a proposal for GSoC'24, specifically within our organization. Exploring the intricacies of DIPY while contributing has only deepened my interest in the project. I believe this investment will not only contribute positively to the proposal but also enhance my understanding of DIPY, making me more effective in my contributions.

I am currently fine-tuning the syntax for running test suites and conducting local tests to ensure everything is set up correctly. I anticipate resolving any remaining issues by tomorrow.

I appreciate your understanding and patience during this process. If you have any specific guidance or suggestions, please feel free to share them.

Thank you for your support.

For now, I will close this PR. Feel free to reopen it when it is ready and you succeed to finalize the remaining issues. Thank you again for working on this.
