This is actually what "Test-Command:" is intended for. For your case you'd only have debian/tests/django.py (without a hashbang) and run it like Test-Command: python debian/tests/django.py Depends: python-django Test-Command: python3 debian/tests/django.py Depends: python3-django > I would suggest to be able to append something "@variant" like to > test names.

You can't use environment variables in hashbangs, so this wouldn't help you that much -- you would still need a wrapper shell script like #!/bin/sh $ADT_VARIANT debian/tests/mytest which doesn't make the thing any easier or more elegant. So from my POV I consider Test-Command: generic and flexible enough for this. What do you think?
