Issue
I've recently contributed to
tox
for the first time (see #3272), and I've noticed that my/tmp/pytest-of-$USER
got quite big.I've started a discussion in pytest-dev/pytest#12283 and dug a bit into it.
Ultimately, I found out that the
tox
' test suite uses a of that temporary storage.Just now, I've deleted the folder
/tmp/pytest-of-martin
and ran thetox
' test suite again.Below you can see how much space it takes up.
I'm not quite sure what is stored in there or what it is used for, but 12 GB seems quite extreme to me.
NB: I'm not sure if this is a bug, or desired behavior, but I thought it's worth reporting. 🙂
Environment
Provide at least:
Output of
pip list
of the host Python, wheretox
is installedOutput of running tox
Output of
tox -rvv
