On my Windows box I have pypy.exe in the path (i.e. typing pypy at the command line works), but if I add pypy to the tox envlist, I get

ERROR: InterpreterNotFound: pypy

can you provide a download/repository including the tox.ini and a full output of a tox run?

Original comment by @mchaput

Yes, it's definitely on the path. It's in the PATH variable and as I said I can type pypy on the command line to run it.

My [testenv] section //does// have deps=nose.

Usually tox finds pypy.exe if it is on the path. Are you sure it's on the PATH? As to the pasted output you should make sure to define deps=nose in your [testenv] section to avoid picking up global installation which might or might not be present.

No, same error. If I do

{{{
[testenv:pypy]
basepython=c:/pypy/pypy
}}}

it doesn't work either. But if I do

{{{
[testenv:pypy]
basepython=c:/pypy/pypy.exe
}}}

I get the following:

{{{
GLOB sdist-make: E:\My Dropbox\workspace\whoosh\setup.py
pypy sdist-reinst: E:\My Dropbox\workspace\whoosh.tox\dist\Whoosh-2.5.0.zip
WARNING:test command found but not installed in testenv
cmd: C:\Python27\Scripts\pip.EXE
env: E:\My Dropbox\workspace\whoosh.tox\pypy
Maybe forgot to specify a dependency?
pypy runtests: commands[0]
WARNING:test command found but not installed in testenv
cmd: C:\Python27\Scripts\nosetests.EXE
env: E:\My Dropbox\workspace\whoosh.tox\pypy

}}}

...then it proceeds to run the tests.

Does it work if you add a section like this:
{{{
#!python

[testenv:pypy]
basepython=pypy

}}}

?
