Use the --venv option instead.
This option was only available when running from source to test the ansible/ansible repository.
This will have no effect on testing collections or running from an installed version of Ansible.
Also update docs to reference the --venv option instead of the --tox option.
This fixes test errors related to failures copying temporary test results files from a remote system back to the local system.
It also speeds up processing of test results and reduces network utilization by avoiding the temporary files.
* Fix ansible-test venv activation.
When using the ansible-test --venv option, an execv wrapper for each python interpreter is now used instead of a symbolic link.
* Fix ansible-test execv wrapper generation.
Use the currently running Python interpreter for the shebang in the execv wrapper instead of the selected interpreter.
This allows the wrapper to work when the selected interpreter is a script instead of a binary.
* Fix ansible-test sanity requirements install.
When running sanity tests on multiple Python versions, install requirements for all versions used instead of only the default version.
* Fix ansible-test --venv when installed.
When running ansible-test from an install, the --venv delegation option needs to make sure the ansible-test code is available in the created virtual environment.
Exposing system site packages does not work because the virtual environment may be for a different Python version than the one on which ansible-test is installed.
* Add --venv delegation to ansible-test.
* Update import sanity test venv creation.
* Fix import test when using --venv on Python 2.x.
* Improve virtualenv setup overhead.
* Hide pip noise for import sanity test.
* Raise verbosity on venv info messages.
* Get rid of base branch noise for collections.
* Add missing --requirements check.
* Remove .keep files from test/results/ dirs.
* Remove classification of test/results/ dir.
* Add results_relative to data context.
* Use variables in delegation paths.
* Standardize file writing and results paths.
* Fix issues reported by PyCharm.
* Clean up invocation of coverage command.
It now runs through the injector.
* Hack to allow intercept_command in cover.py.
* Simplify git ignore for test results.
* Use test result tmp dir instead of cache dir.
* Remove old .pytest_cache reference.
* Fix unit test docker delegation.
* Show HTML report link.
* Clean up more results references.
* Move import sanity test output to .tmp dir.
* Exclude test results dir from coverage.
* Fix import sanity test lib paths.
* Fix hard-coded import test paths.
* Fix most hard-coded integration test paths.
* Fix PyCharm warnings.
* Fix import placement.
* Fix integration test dir path.
* Fix Shippable scripts.
* Fix Shippable matrix check.
* Overhaul key pair management.
* Update ansible-test collection inventory handling.
- The `windows-integration` command now supports the `--inventory` option.
- The incomplete support for host_vars and group_vars directories has been removed.
- The incomplete support for an inventory directory has been removed.
- The inventory specified by `--inventory` can now reside outside the install and content roots.
- Using `ansible_ssh_private_key_file` with `--docker` or `--remote` results in a warning about the combination being unsupported and likely to fail.
* Fix config handling.
* Fix payload handling of ssh keys.
* Disable pylint no-self-use rule for ansible-test.
* De-duplicate payload paths.
