"""Test script for IPython.

The actual ipython test script to be installed with 'python setup.py install'
is in './scripts' directory, and will test IPython from an importable
location.

This file is here (ipython source root directory) to facilitate non-root
'zero-installation testing and development' (just copy the source tree
somewhere and run iptest.py).

You can run this script directly, type -h to see all options."""
