Description
Description
The current tests run only on ubuntu-latest and we're cutting releases without ever testing on other operating systems.
Also the tests running in the conda-build in pytensor-suite-feedstock only cover importing the package.
We noticed this because the sunode-feedstock build is currently failing for OSX with C compilation errors.
To become more robust across the three main operating systems, the PyTensor test suite should run a subset of tests on OSX or Windows.

Research direction
Start with .github/workflows/test.yml to understand the current Ubuntu-only test jobs, then compare them with the import-only commands in pytensor-suite-feedstock's recipe/meta.yaml. Define a representative test subset for macOS or Windows and verify that the workflow runs it on the additional operating system rather than only testing package imports.
