[Tutor] import and unittest

Why not really keep the test code with the main code?

# module code here
#

if __name__ == '__main__':

    import unittest

    class TestModuleCode(unittest.TestCase):
        """ test harness for Module code """

        def setUp(self):
            """ boiler plate for multiple tests """
            pass

        def testSomething
            """ ensure something happens as expected """
            pass

    unittest.main()


I even have some files where I test for command line parameters
and if so I process those. If not, I run the unittests.
