Contributing

tox is used to run the tests and automatically sets up virtual environments to run the tests in. It implicitly uses virtualenv. To install tox run

pip install tox

Make sure to install the supported python versions on your local machine. If you don't want to install all supported python versions, you can either explicitly specify environments you want to run tox in or alternatively you could run tox with the --skip_missing_interpreters flag.

Running tests

You can run all the tests with

tox

or run specific test environments, for example only tests on Python 3.8, with

tox -e py38

If you want to customize the pytest run, you can pass in pytest arguments after the -- like so

tox -e py38 -- tests/test_cli.py

This will run tests only on Python 3.8 and from one module tests/test_cli.py only.

Running linter checks

You can run flake8 checks with

tox -e flake8

flake8 checks are also run as a part of the all tests run with

tox

Building documentation locally
