I just did this:

$ python ./setup.py trial
running update_version
git-version: wrote '1.10.0-89-gb7f3585' into 'src/allmydata/_version.py'
running trial
/home/n/virtualenvs/default/bin/python: can't open file 'bin/tahoe': [Errno 2] No such file or directory

Then I asked people in Nuts & Bolts about this and learned some details. It would be potentially helpful for other if the output instead looked like this:

$ python ./setup.py trial
running update_version
git-version: wrote '1.10.0-89-gb7f3585' into 'src/allmydata/_version.py'
running trial
Error: 'bin/tahoe' does not exist. The trial command requires tahoe to be built.

You can explicitly build tahoe by running:

$ python ./setup.py build

You can build and run trial in a single command by running:

$ python ./setup.py test

Note: The usage text already clearifies this:

$ python ./setup.py --help-commands | grep -E 'test|trial'
  test              run unit tests after in-place build
  trial             run trial (use 'bin/tahoe debug trial' for the full set of trial options)

Note: Prior to running trial, I searched in ./docs for something like testing.rst. Zooko tells me this lives on the wiki, but it seems like it should live in ./docs because it's revision specific and useful even when I'm offline.

setup.py trial has been removed. tox is now the recommended way to run tests, and it builds anything that's necessary. So I think this ticket is no longer relevant.
