Test-Driven Development for the Web, with Python, Selenium, Django, JavaScript - Environment

previous - Installation

The tutorial tells you to use:
> mkvirtualenv --python=python3 superlists

however list produced the error
 The executable /home/keith/python3 (from --python=/home/keith/python3) does not exist

Debian seems to have python3 on the PATH
> which python3
produced
/usr/bin/python3

Maybe the virtualenvwrapper package is not picking this up correctly.

> mkvirtualenv --python=/usr/bin/python3 superlists
worked for me.

django and selenium both installed as expected into this virtual environment (ve)

About Me

I love to travel and meet new people, motorbikes, moving my body through dance, martial arts and yoga. I'm a lifelong learner interested in how things work, and the way people think and make their decisions. My choice of superpower would be to speak with someone and understand them completely, including their intention and for me to be able to communicate my intention to them clearly in their own language.
