For nose, I *think* you can basically achieve what you want by turning
test_run() into a generator (by essentially replacing the call to the
test_method() with a suitable "yield" statement.   See here:
http://readthedocs.org/docs/nose/en/latest/writing_tests.html#test-generators

Additionally you might also look at the TestLoader functionality for
taking further control over how and where your tests are loaded, e.g.
see for example nose.loader.loadTestsFromGenerator() or
nose.loader.loadTestsFromGeneratorMethod() (or indeed all the other
methods) here:
http://readthedocs.org/docs/nose/en/latest/api/loader.html

HTH, my $0.02 worth,
