= 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.
