Note that you don't *have* to use partial in this case, as you're building the suite yourself. Just create the TestCase instances manually:

    suite = unittest.TestSuite([
      TestGenericWindow('testit', 'brown'),
      TestGenericWindow('testit', 'blue'),
      TestGenericWindow('testit', 'green')
      ])
    unittest.TextTestRunner().run(suite)

Perfect!  This is exactly what I needed.  For some reason, I didn't
understand that I could construct my TestCase objects directly... I
thought that I had to allow the unittest framework to construct them for
me.  This is straightforward, and does exactly what I need.

You're not alone :) The unittest design is rather convoluted, probably
because it aims to mimic the jUnit design as closely as possible, with all
its javaism and unpythonicity. I don't think one could understand how to
use the framework just by reading the package documentation; more
background info is needed. The "Dive into Python" book contains a chapter
on this topic.
