What about running nose with a smarter interactive debugger?

Use this and never risk yourself forgetting import ipdb; ipdb.set_trace() in your code again!

This plugin is 99.99% based on nose's builtin debug plugin.

If you have any ideas about how to improve it, come and fork the code at http://github.com/flavioamieiro/nose-ipdb

pip install ipdbplugin

To drop into ipdb on errors:

nosetests --ipdb

To drop into ipdb on failures:

nosetests --ipdb-failures
