I’m using Travis CI to run pywinrm tests for different Python versions but only Python 2.7 is used for development at my workstation.

It would be nice if all those tests could be executed locally by me or by contributors, so I did some analysis and sharing my results here.

Eventually it would be simple command like make.sh test that will build Docker image and run all tests.

In most cases I’m prefer to use debian:jessie because it’s a base for a majority of official images; but here I will go with Ubuntu image.

Precompiled packages from Deadsnakes Ubuntu PPA

Image virtual size is 327 MB

Compile from source using pyenv tool

In addition..

Also, I have tried to build image based on alpine:3.2 , just for fun.

Compilation did work for Python versions 2.7.10, 3.3.6, 3.4.3, 3.5.0 which is good.

Unfortunately, I have not managed to build following versions - 2.6.9, 3.1.5, 3.2.6; compilation was failed for both GCC and Clang compilers.
