[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #48556] Tests in publish.tst display plots when run with 'make check'

[John W. Eaton]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #48556 (project octave):

Is it expected that publish will display figures as it works?  Is that what
Matlab does?

If not, I suppose we could do something like save and restore the root figure
property 'defaultfigurevisible' so that all figures it generates are hidden by
default?  But even that won't always prevent it from displaying figures since
it's possible for a function or script to override the default.

Either way, for our tests, we should probably either set the default
visibility or convert the tests into demos.

This needs to be fixed before the release.  The test suite should not draw
figures.
