Hmm. And it looks like testing/nosetester.py (which implements the 'test' function above) is meant to make it easier to run nose, except my feeling is the extra level of wrapping makes things more complicated. The nosetest command-line appears to be more flexible, with support for, for examples, dropping into the debugger on errors, and reseting the coverage test files.
You can actually pass those sorts of options to nose through the extra_argv parameter in test(). That might be a little cumbersome, but (as far as I know) it's something I'm going to do so infrequently it's not a big deal.
