I would like to point out that while Marcus suggestion is totally valid, docker is not absolutely necessary to run tests on a headless maya session. It might be convenient if that's the way you are used to manage your environments, but he's describing a fairly opinionated setup going beyond the original question.
By the way, why are you talking about compiling python? mayapy is just a simple script setting environment variables in order to use the python interpreter (+ libraries and packages) shipped with maya, you can do the same! (actually virtualenv exploits the same "trick"). Cheers! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Python Programming for Autodesk Maya" group.
