I would be wary about running unit tests on my production box. More specifically unit tests that muck with the database. Certainly! There's a lot of code that doesn't work with persistent storage, though, or can easily have its side-effects limited to some safe space like files in /tmp. You can just run "python setup.py test" Is that a thing that the standard distutils package supports, or is it an extension from setuputils/distribute?
