tox-delay(1)

Usage

tox-delay [{-p value | --parallel value}] -e envlist [-- tox-options ...]

tox-delay [{-V | -h | --version | --help | --features}]

Overview

The tox-delay tool postpones the run of the specified Tox environments after the run of all the others has completed successfully. This may be useful if e.g. there are unit or functional test environments, which it would make no sense to run if the static checkers (pylint, mypy, etc) find any problems.

The tox-delay tool accepts the following command-line options:

-e envlist | --envlist envlist: Specify the environments for which to delay the run.
-p value | --parallel value: Pass a parallel execution option to Tox for the first set of environment runs.
-h | --help: Display program usage information and exit.
-V | --version: Display program version information and exit.
--features: List the features supported by the program and exit.

Environment

The operation of the tox-delay utility is not directly influenced by any environment variables.

Files

The operation of the tox-delay utility is not directly influenced by the contents of any files.

Examples

Run some static checkers in parallel, leave the unit and functional tests for last:

tox-delay -p all -e unit-tests,functional

Pass some options to Tox:

tox-delay -e unit-tests,functional -- --workdir /tmp/tox

Also pass some arguments to the Tox test environments (accessed via {posargs} in the tox.ini file:

tox-delay -e unit-tests,functional -- --workdir /tmp/tox -- -k chosen

Run the unit and functional tests in parallel, too:

tox-delay -p all -e unit-tests,functional -- -p all
