Running Askbot test suites

Hello,

I'm preparing some customizations that might go a bit deeper than skin customization. Therefore I'm investigating the tests found in askbot/tests. However, I don't find any obvious way to run them (I see there's a tox specification file in there, though). Are there descriptions somewhere on how to run them?

And if I get them running, how much of the test suites are expected to pass?

Edit: here's my settings.py:
