testing units in a specific order?

Indeed. It has exactly this feature (together with many nifty others): 
all tests are run in the order they appear in the test-file. The website 
of the py-lib is at

http://codespeak.net/py

the documentation page for py.test is

http://codespeak.net/py/current/doc/test.html

If you like it so much (and I am being optimistic here :-) that you want 
to switch tests that use the stdlib unittest module over to py.test you 
can use a script called utestconvert.py which converts the unittest 
syntax over to py.test syntax. It can be found in the tool directory of 
the py-lib.
