Travis CI now has support for testing on multiple operating systems:

> **[Travis CI Documentation](https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/multi-os/)**
>
> Testing Your Project on Multiple Operating Systems

  

> **[Travis CI Documentation](https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/reference/windows/)**
>
> The Windows Build Environment

I want to leverage this for testing my haxe projects. Just to see what happened, I added an `os` list to my .travis.yml. Here is the result:

> **[Travis CI - Test and Deploy Your Code with Confidence](https://travis-ci.org/github/hissvn/hiss/builds/735545249)**

Mac OS testing worked right out of the box. On Windows it looks like `haxelib install` fails because of a certificate issue:

```auto
Downloading ihx-0,4,0.zip...
Download complete: 0.25KB in 0.5s (0.4KB/s)
Download complete: 0KB in 0s (0KB/s)
Failed to download https://lib.haxe.org:443/files/3.0/ihx-0,4,0.zip. (1/3)
X509 - Certificate verification failed, e.g. CRL, CA or signature check failed

```

It would be great if Haxe Travis could support this use-case, and the docs should be updated so people know it’s possible (at least for Mac OS as of now).

It seems to me that the failure is coming from the utility [`haxelib`](https://github.com/hissvn/hiss/blob/eebd6eeca646c45636725e73e2a38c814b0871e7/test-travis.sh#L3).

`curl` can download the file without any problem on Windows.

```auto
$ curl -sSfLO https://lib.haxe.org:443/files/3.0/ihx-0,4,0.zip
The command "curl -sSfLO https://lib.haxe.org:443/files/3.0/ihx-0,4,0.zip" exited with 0.

```

I am not familiar with the internals of `haxelib`, so that’s about all I can say at the moment.

I found a workaround. I don’t know why it works, but if it could be incorporated in the default haxe install for windows testing, this would mostly be solved:

The other thing that example does is install runtimes for all the haxe target languages on Windows. People testing haxe projects won’t want all of those installed so I don’t know if that should be default as well.
