Pickup a couple of changes (mainly the first one listed below) that are useful to have before we release and will ensure we are compatible with python 2.6 and RHEL due to a bug in jsonutils. d9060f69d203 - Check for namedtuple_as_object support before using it 66142c3471fe - Make strutils.mask_password more secure Closes-Bug: #1361230 Change-Id: I2c3d86184830211b3163988a4054fc45e233c9ba

Testing and requirements
Requirements
Because TaskFlow has many optional (pluggable) parts like persistence
backends and engines, we decided to split our requirements into two
parts: - things that are absolutely required by TaskFlow (you can't use
TaskFlow without them) are put into requirements-pyN.txt
(N
being the Python major version number used to
install the package); - things that are required by some optional part
of TaskFlow (you can use TaskFlow without them) are put into
optional-requirements.txt
; if you want to use the feature
in question, you should add that requirements to your project or
environment; - as usual, things that required only for running tests are
put into test-requirements.txt
.
Tox.ini
Our tox.ini
file describes several test environments
that allow to test TaskFlow with different python versions and sets of
requirements installed.
To generate the tox.ini
file, use the
toxgen.py
script by first installing toxgen and then provide
that script as input the tox-tmpl.ini
file to generate the
final tox.ini
file.
For example:
$ toxgen.py -i tox-tmpl.ini -o tox.ini
