https://img.shields.io/pypi/v/tox.svg https://img.shields.io/pypi/pyversions/tox.svg https://travis-ci.org/tox-dev/tox.svg?branch=master https://img.shields.io/appveyor/ci/RonnyPfannschmidt/tox/master.svg

Tox is a generic virtualenv management and test command line tool you can use for:

  • checking your package installs correctly with different Python versions and interpreters

  • running your tests in each of the environments, configuring your test tool of choice

  • acting as a frontend to Continuous Integration servers, greatly reducing boilerplate and merging CI and shell-based testing.
