I usually pass that parameter as is recommended by Travis' docs:

"We highly recommend using --use-mirrors if you override dependency
installation command to reduce the load on PyPI and possibility of
installation failures."

(from:
http://about.travis-ci.org/docs/user/languages/python/#Travis-CI-uses-pip)

Any reason to remove it that I'm not aware of?

I guess we could execute that as a two step process, asking for devpi to
download the package first to inspect if it has a tox.ini file, and change
"devpi test" command line accordingly... but if you think implementing a
"--fallback-ini" option is easy/useful for others, that's even better.

Note that to play with the devpi-{client,server} current trunk you can do:

Yes, have been playing around with it, very cool. :)

I was thinking that a "pytest compatible" badge is too specific for a
generic tool like devpi, don't you think?

Creating an app on Heroku to store test results from the travis jobs and
serving appropriate badges seems simple enough... is this a direction you
think we should take?
