Content
This issue is to document the defaultTest parameter to unittest.main(): http://docs.python.org/dev/library/unittest.html#unittest.main Note that it is not enough simply to say that defaultTest is a "default test name or iterable of test names." The documentation should also say when defaultTest is used based on the value of the module and argv arguments, etc. This issue is an offshoot of issue 15132.
