Fabric

As it says in the fabfile.py for fabric itself:

def test():

"""
Run all unit tests and doctests.
"""
# **Need show_stderr=True because the interesting output of nosetests is
# actually sent to stderr, not stdout.**
print(local('nosetests -sv --with-doctest', capture=False))

I'm using fabric in place of Paver, which seems broken on OS X 10.6, as a kind of project level makefile and not being to capture the “interesting output” of nosetests during an automated run of my unit tests is a real drag.
