After more testing, my code doesn't work. AppVeyor seems to come with Python 3.4 and 2.7 installed in their usual locations on drive C. I'm testing it out at https://github.com/kirbyfan64/appveyor_python. My new file looks like this:

install:

- ps: (new-object net.webclient).DownloadFile('https://raw.github.com/pypa/pip/master/contrib/get-pip.py', 'C:/get-pip.py') # install pip

- C:/Python34/python.exe C:/get-pip.py # install pip part 2

- C:/Python34/Scripts/pip.exe install wheel # install wheel

build_script:

- python setup.py build # or whatever

test_script:

- py.test # or something else

deploy_script:

- python setup.py sdist bdist_wheel upload

The build hasn't completed, though; I'm still waiting for the results. I keep making dumb mistakes with pytest. Status is at https://ci.appveyor.com/project/kirbyfan64/appveyor-python.

The one I'm working from (cookiecutter) is more complex - essentially
because it manually installs Python etc. I'd not seen cinst before,
but from a quick search I see that's chocolatey. So yes, something
like that. Can you specify which version of Python cinst installs?
You'd actually want to make sure you had all the versions of Python
you supported installed.

Also, you probably couldn't do the upload in deploy_script unless you
were willing to store your credentials in AppVeyor.

But essentially, it's not hard to set up, AFAICT.
