import nose

def main():
    testfiles = 'install_plan.py, json_metadata_utils.py, library.py'
    where = '../build_output/fc/foobar.app/Contents/Frameworks/
install'
    argv=['--verbosity=0', '--with-doctest', '--where=%s'%where, '--
tests=%s'%testfiles]
    nose.main(argv=argv)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

And this works fine.

However, now I need to add another test file, but it is in a different
directory than "where" above.  I've tried several things to no avail,
and the problem always seems to stem from the need to have multiple
different working directories at various times during test execution.

Also, I don't want to break the testing up into multiple nose runs
(ahem) because I'm using nose to aggregate the results into a single
xml file.

Can someone suggest options to solve this problem?

Thanks,

Ideally, I would be able to pass nose a list of (working_dir,  
testfile) pairs to be run.

Would that mean writing a new TestLoader?  Or does the current  
assumption of a single working directory pervade the entirety of nose?

It may be that I need to make it a bit more adaptable, however.

Thanks for the response!
