Well, I'll step in and give my own +1 (for whatever it's worth) to the
use of nose.

I've used nose a good deal in the past, and am completely enamored
with it. One of the fantastic things about it is that it wraps around
unittest, so it's compatible with any unittest suites people might
have.

Of course, you just using unittest by itself also gets you that, but
using nose will save you re-implementing a whole lot of stuff.

I'd suggest at least taking a look at it. All the relevant info about
it (and some pertinent examples) are pretty concisely described on the
project's main page
