I successfully installed nose on my laptop and try to run nosestest. However, terminal reminds me that: "bash: nosetests: command not found."

What's strange is that, when I open up the Python interpreter in Terminal, and do something like:

import nose  
nose.main()

I get the expected result.

I tried to use 

find / -type f -name 'nosetests*' -perm +111 -print -quit

from the answer Installed Nose but cannot use on command line. But the result pops out as:

find: /.DocumentRevisions-V100: Permission denied
find: /.fseventsd: Permission denied
find: /.Spotlight-V100: Permission denied
find: /.Trashes: Permission denied

FYI I'm following the steps of Learn Python the Hard Way.

For ubuntu (Unix) if you do a pip install nose it installs nose in this folder /usr/local/bin

to check this do echo $PATH for a unix system

it should you return a ":" separated list of folders. In this list of folders the folder with the nosetests executable needs to be for you to execute nosetests from the commandline

This solution worked for me in python3.

I had to check for the file in /usr/bin directory using locate nosetests and discovered it's nosetests3.

Use nosetests3 instead of nosetests.

$nosetests3

PS: You need to install locate,so as to use it for searching for files.

sudo apt install locate

Or

sudo apt-get install locate
