I have no opinion on that :-) I don't know how other developers are testing libvirt-python.

"python setup.py test" tests /usr/bin/python" (usually Python 2.7) and it doesn't install dependencies. It might be faster than tox.

"tox" tests Python 2.6, 2.7 and 3.4 at once and it installs dependencies. But it requires the external tox program (install it using "pip install tox").

Yeah sorry, it was the first time that I used git format-patch/git send-email for real!

I missed the fact that the mailing list is for multiple projects. I will mention "python" in the topic next time ;-)

(I already added "libvirt-python" for my setup.py patch.)
