Well, right now that would probably be overkill: the stdout-to-file
redirection takes 3 lines at most. Besides we would still need to set
some environment variables to run python with the correct directories.
But of course if we need to add more helper functions for running python
tests, then a test-lib.py would be nice.

Maybe we could even think about using one of Python's unit test libs for
that: doctest, unittest (both in the standard library) and nose seem to
be the most popular ones.
