The best option I've see for this sort of thing is tox: http://tox.testrun.org/ This allows you to specify the PyPI packages (and versions) that need to be installed in order to run the test suite, and automates the process of setting up the test environment (using virtualenv). If code needs to run as part of a larger project, tox can coordinate running the tests in that project. It also integrates nicely with CI servers, and it allows for easy testing across Python and Django versions. To pick an example at random: here's the tox.ini file for Easy-thumbnails, which tests Py2.5-Py2.7, Django 1.2-1.4, as well as the documentation build. https://github.com/SmileyChris/easy-thumbnails/blob/master/tox.ini Russ %-) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
