PyBuilder is a multi-purpose software build tool with a strong focus on Python.
PyBuilder provides a powerful and extensible way for building and testing software and mainly targets Python applications.
It allows you to use Python to write build files and is highly pluggable.
Some of the capabilities are:
- execution of unit and integration tests
- generation of distutils script setup.py
- analysis of the code coverage
- execution and result interpretation of analysis tools, such as flake8
PyBuilder is based on the concept of dependency based programming but also comes along with powerful plugin mechanism that allows the construction of build life cycles similar to those known from other famous build tools like Apache Maven.
