These tools are completely written in python, so you will need a python interpreter (available on many platforms). Just copy them in a directory of your hoice and installation is done. :-)

For Windows users there is also a binary .MSI installation, which does not need python installed.

You will need to get Tox in order to run the project tests. Normally it is done by calling:

$ pip install tox

inside a Virtual Environment ( https://virtualenv.pypa.io/en/stable/ ).

Please, see https://tox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install.html for more information about installing Tox.

Once you have installed Tox, just call:

$ tox

to get your tests running.
