Sounds like `test.py` is intended to be run as a script, but was not marked as executable.  Make it executable, and that should solve the problem.

The script plugin reports:

([Errno 13] Permission denied: '/runner/project/rheva/tower_ inventory.py')

This indicates that the file is not actually marked as executable.
