Today as of the resolved issue #355 the XML report's root <testsuite> tag's name attribute is hard-coded to pytest. To make reporting easier in larger projects with several test suites it is useful to set this attribute to something meaningful like unit, integration, gui, etc. Other reporting tools that read and aggregate JUnit-style XML reports rely on this argument.
I propose adding a --junit-suitename str argument to the py.test command which would set this string.
I'm happy to contribute to the project with this feature if the people in charge think it's a good idea.
