One additional comment regarding ERT.  pyenv installs an ipython shim
to the shims directory, if there is at least one virtualenv providing
ipython.  It can be found by `executable-find'.  However, it is not
usable unless the virtualenv is activated.  As a result, the
`python-shell-completion-at-point-ipython' ERT would fail unless a
virtualenv which provides ipython is activated.

This may be something pyenv users should take care of, but it is more
convenient for pyenv users like me to make the following changes.

diff --git a/test/lisp/progmodes/python-tests.el b/test/lisp/progmodes/python-tests.el
