I'm not personally very keen on inspecting everything in self.__dict__,
I suspect it would tickle bugs in other unittest extensions. However I'm
not really /against/ it - I don't think it will result in bad test
behaviour or isolation issues. So if users would like it, lets do it.
Why not take all resource_XXX attributes?
Sure, though if we're just introspecting I don't see much risk
difference between resource_XXX and all XXX. As I say above I'm happy to
do it if folk think it will be nice.
We could introspect all class attributes and find all the resources. We
should use dir(...) rather than looking in the class __dict__ so that
resources can be inherited.
However, it sounds like Guido isn't a fan of Test Resources *instead* of
setUpClass / module because it doesn't offer a simple solution for the
setUpModule use case and the API still needs to mature.
All the best,

By the way, how does a given test access the allocated resource? Say, the DB
connection. Does it become an attribute of the test case instance?
yes. Given
class Foo(TestCase):
resources = {'thing', MyResourceManager()}
def test_foo(self):
self.thing
self.thing will access the resource returned by MyResourceManager.make()
