Nose plugin to time tests

nose-timetests.py

"""This plugin provides test timings to identify which tests might be
taking the most. From this information, it might be useful to couple
individual tests nose's `--with-profile` option to profile problematic
tests.

This plugin is heavily influenced by nose's `xunit` plugin.

Add this command to the way you execute nose::

    --with-test-timer

After all tests are executed, they will be sorted in ascending order.
