[Qt-creator] Dealing with python projects

[Jason H]

Check out this thread: https://lists.qt-project.org/pipermail/qt-creator/2019-March/007865.html

I also requested documentation on .pyproject and why a standard python project format was not used. I think it isn't meant to be a proper python IDE, just one good enough for PySide. Which is a shame.

> qbs project (broken=cannot be built).
> One interesting feature is that i can configure QtC to run the test
> webserver using a simple wrapper script. And with a project type of
> "python" (or whatever is not recognised by qbs) QtC skip the build
> process.
> What would be nice now is to have my unit tests integrated... :)
> My test command can generate JUnit XML files.
