Continuous Testing Driven Development

Use with Bruno Bord's Test Daemon to create an simple environment of continuous testing to Python by rerunning tests every time you change something:

tdaemon.py --custom-args "--with-nosegrowlnotify"

With this approach, you can freely code and refactor you code, and you'll be notified every time you broke some test, or that all your tests still green, without leaving your favorite editor.
