• tox-ansible

  1 48 8.1 Python

  The tox-ansible plugin dynamically creates a full matrix of python interpreter and ansible-core version environments for running integration, sanity, and unit for an ansible collection both locally and in a Github action. tox virtual environments are leveraged for collection building, collection installation, dependency installation, and testing.

  

The tox-ansible plugin is undergoing a major rewrite and scope change. It aims to be an easier way to consistently run a collection's tests locally and in your CI/CD pipeline. Feedback welcome!
