I echo Malcolm's comment when he wontfix'd the ticket a year ago. The patch forces a artificial naming convention. As a as a workaround for that naming convention, you proposed a glob setting. All of this seems to be in aid of avoiding one of three very simple existing solutions: * using import statements in test/__init__.py * defining a suite() that includes a test discovery mechanism that includes the tests you want * writing a custom test runner that discovers tests with a particular file prefix All three of these options are possible right now, require no code changes, and don't impose any naming conventions. I can tell you're enthused by the idea - working on a patch for a year even after it's been wontfix'd shows some serious dedication. However, that doesn't change my review - I'm still wontfix on this idea.
