A class extending testtools.TestCase can add this handler in setUp():
self.addOnException(post_mortem_debug.exception_handler)
When an exception occurs, the user will be dropped into a pdb
session in the execution environment of the failure.
Frames associated with the testing framework are excluded so that
the post-mortem session for an assertion failure will start at the
assertion call (e.g. self.assertTrue) rather than the framework code
that raises the failure exception (e.g. the assertTrue method).

"""Retrieve the first traceback of an ignored trailing chain.
Given an initial traceback, find the first traceback of a trailing
chain of tracebacks that should be ignored. The criteria for
whether a traceback should be ignored is whether its frame's
globals include the __unittest marker variable. This criteria is
culled from:
unittest.TestResult._is_relevant_tb_level
For example:
tb.tb_next => tb0.tb_next => tb1.tb_next
- If no tracebacks were to be ignored, None would be returned.
- If only tb1 was to be ignored, tb1 would be returned.
- If tb0 and tb1 were to be ignored, tb0 would be returned.
- If either of only tb or only tb0 was to be ignored, None would
be returned because neither tb or tb0 would be part of a
trailing chain of ignored tracebacks.
