A --test-tox option/envar/etc would still be a great addition. The trick is getting the -e value correct, since by default tox wants to run against all environments named in the tox.ini file, although it does a fine job now of ignoring missing environments (e.g. python 2.6 or 3.2). I tried to write an override_dh_auto_test for my nose2 package that passed the right `-e pyXY` but have so far failed, so #721068 is would also be important to solve I think. Thanks for adding this! Of all the test runners available to Python, tox is one of my favorites. :)
