The *defaultTest* argument is either the name of a single test or an
iterable of test names to run if no test names are specified via *argv*. If
not specified or ``None`` and no test names are provided via *argv*, all
tests found in *module* are run.
The *argv* argument can be a list of options passed to the program, with the
first element being the program name. If not specified or ``None``,
the values of :data:`sys.argv` are used.
