Description: # Why
        
        Because unit testing is even more fun 
        
        * when you don't have to switch out of your editor to get feedback from unit tests.
        * the shorter the feedback period is till you get feedback from your tests.
        
        I've seen the usefullness toying with rubys autotest command, so I pestered Felix to build something like this, and after using it for about a two years, I finally got around to packaging it. :-)
        
        In addition to that it's brain dead simple, has no dependencies and is _really_ small.
        
        # Usage
        
        	% watching_testrunner --help
        	Usage: watching_testrunner [options] command [arguments...]
        
        	Options:
        	  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
        	  -b BASEPATH, --basepath=BASEPATH
        	                        base path to watch for changes
        	  -p WATCH_WILDCARD, --pattern=WATCH_WILDCARD
        	                        glob-style pattern for file names to watch
        
        # Examples
        
        	$ watching_testrunner nosetessts $NOSETESTS_ARGUMENTS
        
        This will run nosetests whenever any python file below the current directory changes
        
        	$ watching_testrunner --basepath foo/bar --pattern="*" nosetessts $NOSETESTS_ARGUMENTS
        
        This will run nosetests whenever any file below ./foo/bar changes.
        
        	$ watching_testrunner --basepath path/to/js_tests --pattern="*.js" jasmine --console
         
         This will run jasmine --console whenever any js file below ./path/to/js_tests changes (i.e. you can use the watching testrunner to get auto test execution using any tool for any language)
