I've been reading this discussion, and I don't really have anything to add to this, except that I've seen the term "standard compliant test cases" used quite a lot, and I'm a little bit confused by it.

My understanding is that it's shorthand for "works with any runner compatible with the unittest module in CPython's standard library." So basically keeping things flexible and not locking the project into a specific test runner or breaking the ability to e.g. serialize results into subunit protocol format. -- Jeremy Stanley
