Thanks for the quick support on this. I've tried removing the __name__ == '__main__' and while that doesn't fix the problem it does at least show that the script should not be run in isolation.
In the meantime I have found that if I debug the full set of tests then I am able to debug the tests that I am interested in. While this works it does have the following disadvantages; 1) It takes more time before you are actually debugging the code you are interested in and 2) if you are debugging a piece of code deep inside the project the breakpoints could be hit from other tests and not just the ones of interest and 3) this works by chance and given a change of execution, the failure could be exposed again. 1) is not really a problem as the tests all complete very quickly however 2) is a little annoying. It can be avoided by setting up breakpoints in the tests of interest and using them as preconditions for the actual breakpoints in the core of the project but this is fiddly to set up. In any case, I've found a way to work around this so I don't need anything to be fixed or changed right now.
