The tests fail for me when running with a fresh clone using doit with python 3.8 on os x.
Depending on how the test virtual environment is created, there is not always a symlink with the python. naming convention. python -m venv creates only python & python3. Using virtualenv to manually create a virtual environment creates python3.8 symlink and the tests run fine.
This fix modifies the py test fixture so that it creates its own symlink in a temp directory. Then uses that temp directory as the modified PATH passed to the py launcher environment when the test runs.
