$> pip install -r requirements-dev.txt

The run the tests for all Python versions on your system:

$> python sh.py test

To run a single test for all environments:

$> python sh.py test FunctionalTests.test_unicode_arg

To run a single test for a single environment:

$> python sh.py test -e 3.4 FunctionalTests.test_unicode_arg

Coverage

First run all of the tests:

$> python sh.py test

This will aggregate a .coverage. You may then visualize the report with:

$> coverage report

Or generate visual html files with:
