Right now zeitgeist is using pure python unittest plus a self written script to run all tests. I think there are cases where we need a more powerful testing framework, I suggest using nose [1].
Some examples:
 * we are using temporary databases for our tests, it would be nice if we could hook into a testfailure with a sqlite3 terminal to introspect the content and run queries manually before deleting the database
 * right now it is a pain to select individual testcases, nose can help us alot with this
