They test the usage and interaction of python packages installed into a nix profile. Currently, they use the system profile and are therefore NixOS-specific, but could be fixed easily to use any profile. Further, it would be enough to have a profile and an empty directory to run the tests with, the nixos test isolation with qemu seems to be overkill. Does that qualify for a python-tests jobset within nixpkgs? Where to go from here? -- Florian Friesdorf <[email protected]> GPG FPR: 7A13 5EEE 1421 9FC2 108D BAAF 38F8 99A3 0C45 F083 Jabber/XMPP: [email protected] IRC: chaoflow on freenode,ircnet,blafasel,OFTC
