use nox in ci test #441

Open nstarman opened 3 months ago

I noticed the CI test doesn't use nox, which is the testing framework in this cookie.

You don’t have to use nox in the CI, CI is also a test runner. For example, you might want to install pytest-github-actions-annotate-failures only in ci.

You can use it in CI, certainly, but you don’t have to. For a template like this, it is a little bit safer if someone does delete or ignore the noxfile, while using nox will be a little safer if people customize their nox test set up.

That's a useful tool! Didn't know about it, thanks!
