tox 1.2: the virtualenv-based test run automatizer¶
I am happy to announce tox 1.2, now using and depending on the latest
virtualenv code and containing some bug fixes. TOX automates tedious
test activities driven from a simple tox.ini file, including:
- creation and management of different virtualenv environments with different Python interpreters
- packaging and installing your package into each of them
- running your test tool of choice, be it nose, py.test or unittest2 or other tools such as “sphinx” doc checks
- testing dev packages against each other without needing to upload to PyPI
It works well on virtually all Python interpreters that support virtualenv.
Docs and examples are at:
Installation:
pip install -U tox

1.2 compared to 1.1¶
- remove the virtualenv.py that was distributed with tox and depend on virtualenv-1.6.4 (possible now since the latter fixes a few bugs that the inling tried to work around)
- fix issue10: work around UnicodeDecodeError when inokving pip (thanks Marc Abramowitz)
- fix a problem with parsing {posargs} in tox commands (spotted by goodwill)
- fix the warning check for commands to be installed in testevironment (thanks Michael Foord for reporting)
