Pyres comes with a test suite which connects to a local Redis server and creates a couple of queues and jobs.
Make sure you have nose installed:
$ pip install nose
Also make sure your Redis server is running:
$ cd path_to_redis_installation
$ ./redis-server [PATH_TO_YOUR_REDIS_CONFIG]
If you don’t give the ./redis-server command the config path, it will use a default config, which should run the tests just fine.
Now, we’re ready to run the tests. From the pyres install directory:
$ nosetests
