Not that I can think of, beyond those you've already mentioned. I mostly just copy the style of existing tests (though there are definitely some test_*** files that aren't particularly well written). For quick questions, you might get good answers by asking on the #python-dev freenode IRC channel: a good few of the people interested in testing (esp. Michael Foord, Ezio Melotti) can often be found there. -- Mark -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
