Thanks for taking a look at this, and good question. Without restructuring how the tests are done, I believe the short answer is no. The funny thing about this test module is that it does not actually have any unittest test cases. It just calls some functions. Failure happens if an exception is raised in any one of those functions. See here, for example: http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/59a2807872d5/Lib/test/test_curses.py#l35
