= Full documentation =
The bs4/doc/ directory contains full documentation in Sphinx
format. Run "make html" in that directory to create HTML
documentation.
= Running the unit tests =
Beautiful Soup supports unit test discovery from the project root directory:
$ nosetests
$ python -m unittest discover -s bs4 # Python 2.7 and up
If you checked out the source tree, you should see a script in the
home directory called test-all-versions. This script will run the unit
tests under Python 2.7, then create a temporary Python 3 conversion of
the source and run the unit tests again under Python 3.
