unittest.TestCase doesn't have any test* methods (methods whose names
begin with "test"). So neither do your subclasses.

When you subclass test, however, test has everything that
unittest.TestCase does (because it subclasses unittest.TestCase) and it
also has three test* methods. So your subclass of test also has those
three methods as well.
