The unittest.TestCase class has some public attributes: failureException, longMessage and maxDiff.  They each have a description in a comment, but I think it would be good if that description got moved into the class docstring so that it would be found using help().

Add a patch for this issue, move attributes comments in TestCase docstring.

I think it should be a good idea too to add their in unittest doc.
