A way to output pyunit test name in setup()

self.id().split('.')[-1]

You can find the Documentation at: http://docs.python.org/library/unittest.html#unittest.TestCase.id

edit: For 2.7 users, https://docs.python.org/2.7/library/unittest.html#unittest.TestCase.id

You can use self._testMethodName. This is inherited from the unittest.TestCase parent class.

def setUp():
    print("In method", self._testMethodName)
