  Run (Python) unit tests under cursor

I also have a plugin that lets me run a single unit test inside Vim (in the background, using asyncrun), so I can do TDD with by repeatedly pressing F9 (run test under cursor) or Shift-F9 (repeat last test, in case my cursor is now in the middle of the actual code rather than in the test). The status line changes color to let me know if the test passed, and if it failed, I get a quickfix window with the error.
