Description
It's infeasible to test with all possible combinations of dependencies. However, suppose that the largest number of acceptable versions for a dependency is k. Then, using k tests we can test each version of all dependencies at least once. This seems feasible to do for a release, for example.
Note: See
TracTickets for help on using
tickets.
To implement this, we can generate k versions of the _auto_deps.py file, each specifying the dependencies using == requirements.
