tox could not find executable 'rmdir'
I am trying to create a tox.ini
file that runs my tests, clears previous coverages, and creates a coverage. I want to delete the previous htmlcov
folder, by rmdir /S /Q htmlcov
.
The error I get is: ERROR: InvocationError for command could not find executable 'rmdir'
, however, the command works in the command line.
Can someone explain why?
Here is my tox.ini
file:
[tox]
envlist = py35
[testenv]
deps = pytest
coverage
commands = pytest
coverage erase
rmdir /S /Q htmlcov
coverage run --branch __main__.py test
coverage report --omit='.tox/*,venv/*,tests/'
coverage html --omit='.tox/*,venv/*,tests/'
python tox
