It would be nice to migrate to py.test which seems to have more features and better usability than nose at this point. This is potentially a large chunk of work given how customized our nose environment is.

Hey, that's great! I really prefer py.test. Feel free to open a PR and mark it as "WIP" to start getting some Travis testing running on it.
I appreciate the heads up that you are working on it so we avoid duplication of effort.
