     The following monkey patch seems to work:

     # shadow the dir() built-in with an order-preserving analogue
     def my_dir(obj):
          return list(vars(obj))
     unittest.loader.dir = my_dir

     # disable sorting
     unittest.defaultTestLoader.sortTestMethodsUsing = None

   ===>> Hi Peter,
   Thank you! That looks quite compact, so I'll give that a try on Monday. I
   could even use a lambda for my_dir(). I thought dir() was (re)implemented
   by defining, or in this case injecting, a __dir__ special method?
   Best wishes,
