Is it possible to use tox with conda-based Python installations?

Question

The Python testing tool tox seems to be designed to work with virtualenv. Can it also work on conda/anaconda-based Python installations?

Answer 1

Yes, you need the conda version of virtualenv installed for this to work.

Try to execute:

conda install virtualenv

virtualenv                15.1.0                   py36_

Change to project directory containing tox.ini and execute:

tox
