FYI, with py.test you can do: 

    py.test --looponfailing 

which will run all your tests, then wait for changes,
re-run only your failures, wait for changes, ..., 
until you have no failures left.  Then it
runs your whole test set again. this goes
on forever.

so if you have no failures in your tests it 
effectively does the same as "nosy" as far
as i see.
