Configurable nosetests support

[svetlyak40wt]

I want to contribute a nosetests support. What is the best way to make choice between py.test and nose configurable?

[ionelmc]

I would involve:

• Adding an option for it (and default to pytest) in https://github.com/ionelmc/cookiecutter-pylibrary/blob/master/cookiecutter.json#L17
• Adding it in the cookiecutter test builder suite https://github.com/ionelmc/cookiecutter-pylibrary/blob/master/ci/setup.cfg#L1
• Run ./ci/bootstrap.py to regenerate the test .cookiecutterrc files.
• Changing the bare tox.ini to have an conditional for it, eg https://github.com/ionelmc/cookiecutter-pylibrary/blob/master/%7B%7Bcookiecutter.repo_name%7D%7D/tox.ini#L43-L45
• Changing the template tox.ini (don't forget the raw sections) to have an conditional for it, eg https://github.com/ionelmc/cookiecutter-pylibrary/blob/master/%7B%7Bcookiecutter.repo_name%7D%7D/ci/templates/tox.ini#L20-L24 (this tox.ini file is used with the test_matrix_configurator=yes option)

Then just push branch and make PR (Travis will run the tests) and we'll figure out what to do from there.

If you get stuck, just make the PR with whatever you have so far.

Thank, you. Will send a pull request.

@ionelmc here is a pull: #9
What is the best way to test if it works correctly?

[ionelmc]

If you wanna test locally you can run cookiecutter path/to/your/fork.

You can also run the whole suite (just run tox), but be warned, it will override your ~/.cookiecutterrc - I will fix that soon-ish.

@ionelmc could you please help me with tox?

I tried to run it locally, but have got this strange error:

As I understand, cookiecutter-pylibrary/ci/test.cmd is a script for windows environment, right? Why it is executed on OSX?

[ionelmc]

My bad, I accidentally unset the exec perms on that file. Run chmod +x ci/test.cmd to fix.

test.cmd is just a shim (can run as both windows batch or unix shell).

[ionelmc]

Seems I also have the wrong slash inside (should be ci/test.sh instead of ci\test.sh).
