notice that in logilab-common_, you can find a testlib module which extends 
the  standard unittest module. You simply have to use its TestCase class and 
unittest_main function, and then you have some unittest + setup/teardown 
module, skip test support, more test primitives (assertIsInstance, 
assertTextEquals...), etc... As a bonus you have the pytest utilitiy for fine 
control of test executions.
