NAME
tox - automation project
SYNOPSIS
tox [subcommand] [options] [args ...]
DESCRIPTION
tox is a generic virtual environment management and test command line tool you can use
for:
• checking your package builds and installs correctly under different environments (such
as different Python implementations, versions or installation dependencies),
• running your tests in each of the environments with the test tool of choice,
• acting as a frontend to continuous integration servers, greatly reducing boilerplate and
merging CI and shell-based testing.
OVERVIEW
tox has several subcommands, each with their own options. Below you can find an exhaustive
list of options for each of those subcommands.
Each tox subcommand has a 1 (or 2) letter shortcut form too. For example, tox run can also
be written as tox r or tox config can be shortened to tox c.
