Running the Django tests with Tox

tox.ini goes into Django's root folder. test_*.py to the tests/ directory.

Install tox and run tox -e $python-$db. For instance, to run the tests on python 2.7 and sqlite:

tox -e py27-sqlite

You can also pass the app labels to test. To run the wsgi tests:

tox -e py27-sqlite -- wsgi
