-tox 1.4.3: the Python virtualenv-based testing automatizer
-=============================================================================
-
-tox 1.4.3 fixes some bugs and introduces a new script and two new options:
-
-- "tox-quickstart" - run this script, answer a few questions, and
- get a tox.ini created for you (thanks Marc Abramowitz)
-
-- "tox -l" lists configured environment names (thanks Lukasz Balcerzak)
-
-- (experimental) "--installpkg=localpath" option which will skip the
- sdist-creation of a package and instead install the given localpath package.
-
-- use pip-script.py instead of pip.exe on win32 to avoid windows locking
- the .exe
-
-Note that the sister project "detox" should continue to work - it's a
-separately released project which drives tox test runs on multiple CPUs
-in parallel.
-
-More documentation:

-Installation:
-
- pip install -U tox

-What is tox?
-----------------
-
-tox standardizes and automates tedious python driven 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
-
-best,
-Holger Krekel

-1.4.3 (compared to 1.4.2)
---------------------------------
-
-- introduce -l|--listenv option to list configured environments
- (thanks Lukasz Balcerzak)
-
-- fix downloadcache determination to work according to docs: Only
- make pip use a download cache if PIP_DOWNLOAD_CACHE or a
- downloadcache=PATH testenv setting is present. (The ENV setting
- takes precedence)
-
-- fix issue84 - pypy on windows creates a bin not a scripts venv directory
- (thanks Lukasz Balcerzak)
-
-- experimentally introduce --installpkg=PATH option to install a package rather than
- create/install an sdist package. This will still require and use
- tox.ini and tests from the current working dir (and not from the remote
- package).
-
-- substitute {envsitepackagesdir} with the package installation directory (closes #72)
- (thanks g2p)
-
-- issue #70 remove PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE workaround now that
- virtualenv behaves properly (thanks g2p)
-
-- merged tox-quickstart command, contributed by Marc Abramowitz, which
- generates a default tox.ini after asking a few questions
-
-- fix #48 - win32 detection of pypy and other interpreters that are on PATH
- (thanks Gustavo Picon)
-
-- fix grouping of index servers, it is now done by name instead of
- indexserver url, allowing to use it to separate dependencies
- into groups even if using the same default indexserver.
-
-- look for "tox.ini" files in parent dirs of current dir (closes #34)
-
-- the "py" environment now by default uses the current interpreter
- (sys.executable) make tox' own setup.py test execute tests with it
- (closes #46)
-
-- change tests to not rely on os.path.expanduser (closes #60),
- also make mock session return args[1:] for more precise checking (closes #61)
- thanks to Barry Warszaw for both.
