do:
$ sudo apt-get install python-nose
$ nosetests runHarnessV2.py

To get more test information do:
$ nosetests -v runHarnessV2.py

runharness.py is a handwritten script, and to add more features or different 
type of reporting would mean a lot more writing.
runHarnessV2.py conforms with generally known python testing, such as doctests 
and unittest, so hopefully this should be easier in the longterm.
Decided to try nose testing since it allows for test generators, which is what 
we need if we drive our tests with repetative data.

Will be intrested to hear how Christian and Michael feels.

I do see python3-nose as a package, but liblouis doesn't seem to be available 
for me in python3, so can't test if v2 needs any modification to 
work on both p2 and p3.

Thanks.
