Strong disagree on tox. I was all in on it back in 2020-2023 and I found it was a consistent source of headaches and complexity. Whenever we’d run into venv issues it was always tox, often passing or not passing some critical under-the-hood ENV var resulting in reproducibility errors that were difficult to immediately diagnose. It also blurs the line between env vars used to set up tox env and those you want set in your final test env.
We just use containers in CI instead now for matrix testing and it’s so much more clear what is going on with the test env.
