+Testing
+=======
+Unit tests can be invoked by using the ``tox`` command. You may have to
+configure multiple python interpreters so that you can test in all the
+environments listed in ``tox.ini`` or you will have to run ``tox`` with the
+``-e`` flag to run only in your version of python. For example, if you only
+have Python 2.7 then ``tox -e py27`` will limit your test run to Python 2.7.
