• This repo contains example code of Python Tox Tutorial - Complete guide on automation testing using Python Tox, including a sample using tox, selenium, and running on LambdaTest Cloud platform.
• This project uses Pytest framework to run the tests.

In today’s rapidly evolving software industry, ensuring that an application performs reliably across various environments presents a considerable challenge. QAs and developers often face difficulties when it comes to testing code compatibility across multiple Python versions, juggling dependencies, and maintaining uniformity between development, testing, and production settings. These obstacles often give rise to the infamous "it works on my machine" problem, where code behaves inconsistently across different platforms. Such variations can slow down the development process and elevate the chances of bugs making their way into production, potentially leading to serious issues for end-users.

Python Tox offers a powerful solution to these problems in the test automation area. By automating the testing process across diverse environments, Tox ensures that code is thoroughly validated in all possible configurations. It isolates environments and streamlines complex testing scenarios, enabling developers to identify and resolve issues early in the development cycle. This not only minimizes the manual effort required to manage multiple test setups but also leads to the delivery of more dependable software. In an era where continuous integration and delivery are critical, the robust automation provided by Tox is essential for maintaining high standards of software quality.

By default, the test would be running on LambdaTest Platform.
