Better exception messages for unittest assert methods.
...
- unittest.assertNotEqual() now uses the inequality operator (!=) instead
of the equality operator.
- Default assertTrue and assertFalse messages are now useful.
- TestCase has a longMessage attribute. This defaults to False, but if set to True
useful error messages are shown in addition to explicit messages passed to assert methods.

The unittest.TestCase.assertEqual() now displays the differences in lists,
...
tuples, dicts and sets on failure.
Many new handy type and comparison specific assert* methods have been added
that fail with error messages actually useful for debugging. Contributed in
by Google and completed with help from mfoord and GvR at PyCon 2009 sprints.
Discussion lives in http://bugs.python.org/issue2578 .
