Node Environment Setup Tool

A Python-based tool that automates the creation of Node.js virtual environments for multiple project configurations.

Capabilities

Environment Creation

Creates isolated Node.js environments with specified configurations.

• Creates an environment at the path "test_env" with the latest Node.js version and npm enabled @test
• Creates an environment at the path "custom_env" with Node.js version "16.20.0" @test

Environment Validation

Validates that created environments have the correct structure and contain expected executables.

• Verifies that the environment directory exists and contains the appropriate bin directory (Unix) or Scripts directory (Windows) @test
• Verifies that the node executable exists and is accessible in the created environment @test
