# nose and tox

It is easy to integrate nosetests runs with tox. For starters here is a simple `tox.ini` config to configure your project for running with nose:

## Basic nosetests example

Assuming the following layout:

    tox.ini      # see below for content
    setup.py     # a classic distutils/setuptools setup.py file

and the following `tox.ini` content:

    [testenv]
    deps = nose
    # ``{posargs}`` will be substituted with positional arguments from comand line
    commands = nosetests {posargs}

you can invoke `tox` in the directory where your `tox.ini` resides. `tox` will sdist-package your project create two virtualenv environments with the `python2.7` and `python3.6` interpreters, respectively, and will then run the specified test command.
