New submission from Robert Collins:

Unittest doesn't support a test randomisation feature.

Such a feature should support:
 - passing in a seed (to allow reproducing the order for debugging)
 - preserving the suite hierarchy, to preserve class and module setUp 
performance optimisations
 - and randomising globally with cloned suite hierarchies, for more 
comprehensive randomisation
 - allowing some scopes to opt out of randomisation (where tests really have 
dependencies on execution order and thats what the test author wants)
