How to run upstream test suite that uses ‘tox’?
Howdy all, I'm trying to run the test suite of a packagfe I'm maintaining. Upstream only supports running the test suite using ‘tox’: $ tox -e py27,py33 But this fails in a Debian build environment because ‘tox’ expects to install packages from PyPI, and ignores already-installed OS packages. With ‘python-nose’ and ‘python-mock’ both installed, ‘tox -e py27’ still attempts to install ‘nose’ and ‘mock’ from the internet (and fails because I've disabled internet access in the build environment). How can I convince ‘tox’ to use the OS-installed packages? Alternatively, I don't really care about the special features of ‘tox’; I only want to run the test suite with the specific PYthon version. What can I do in the build environment to run the test suite as ‘tox’ would run it? -- \“Consider the daffodil.

You could just run the command specified in tox.ini, eg "python setup.py test". -- /* * Hash table gook.. */ 2.4.0-test2 /usr/src/linux/fs/buffer.c signature.asc Description: PGP signature

I'll need to request upstream de-couple the test commands (there are several commands specified in ‘tox.ini’) from ‘tox’. Where should I direct upstream to read about ‘setup.py test’? Is that the recommended way to enable a test suite for Debian and other distributors? -- \ “The cost of education is trivial compared to the cost of | `\ ignorance.” —Thomas Jefferson | _o__) | Ben Finney -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-python-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
