tox 1.3: the virtualenv-based test run automatizer¶
I am happy to announce tox 1.3, containing a few improvements
over 1.2. 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
Docs and examples are at:
Installation:
pip install -U tox

1.3¶
- fix: allow to specify wildcard filesystem paths when specifiying dependencies such that tox searches for the highest version
- fix issue issue21: clear PIP_REQUIRES_VIRTUALENV which avoids pip installing to the wrong environment, thanks to bb’s streeter
- make the install step honour a testenv’s setenv setting (thanks Ralf Schmitt)
