Antoine - I think I can see the use case. ATM, to conform to PEP399, every test _class_ has to be subclassed twice with appropriate assignment to the relevant tested class. This leads to a lot of repetition. As an example, see test_decimal.py, which does this a lot.

It would be nice to save programmers from this repetition; however, as I said before, this solution seems very complex. Maybe simpler solutions can be conceived?
