detox 0.19

distributing activities of the tox tool

detox is unmaintained and incompatible with tox > 3.6

detox was a plugin for tox to enable parallel environment execution. tox 3.7 added a native possibility to do this (tox -p|--parallel) and effectively supercedes detox.

---

What is detox?

detox is the distributed version of tox. It makes efficient use of multiple CPUs by running all possible activities in parallel. It has the same options and configuration that tox has so after installation can just run:

detox

in the same way and with the same options with which you would run tox, see the tox home page for more info.

Additionally, detox offers a -n or --num option to set the number of concurrent processes to use.

NOTE due to the concurrent execution of the testenvs the output of the different testruns is not printed to the terminal. Instead they are logged into separate files inside the log directories of the testenvs.

CHANGELOG

0.19

• as tox added a parallel mode in 3.7 detox will only work with older versions of tox now so the installation requires a version of tox < 3.7
• mark repository as unmaintained
• add a warning at the end of the testrun hinting the user to try it without detox and a version of tox > 3.6

• (infrastructure) add Travis CI setup. Thanks Timothée Mazzucotelli (@Pawamoy).
• add "-n NUMPROC" option to set number of processes. The default is the number of CPUs as determined by multiprocessing.cpu_count() or "2" if the call does not work (e.g. on py27/windows). Thanks Timothée Mazzucotelli (@Pawamoy).

0.10.0

• get compatible again to tox-2.0

0.9.4

• get compatible again to eventlet by avoiding to import eventlet.processes, thanks Takeshi Komiya for the PR.
• make detox honor skipsdist. Thanks Timoth Messier for the PR.
• change license to MIT

0.9.3

• fix issue6: quickly make detox work with tox-1.6 again (although not all 1.6 features supported, e.g. --develop does not work)
• fix issue3: don't claim a TROVE identifier of "python3" because detox itself depends on eventlet which does not work on py3 yet. (Nevertheless detox will create py3 environments through tox of course)

• fix issue4 - fail properly if sdist-packaging fails

0.9.1

• fix issue5 - small adjustments to work with latest tox-1.4.3 version
