+1 from me.   I am all for standardizing this.

Personally when I started looking at OpenStack code as new contributor this
was very confusing with the online docs that listed run_tests.sh but the
first project I looked at, this didn't exist and it was all tox based.

I went on to blog about my first experience of tox, as this was lacking in
OpenStack docs.
