I use py.test [1], another test runner which has plugins that offer this feature. The pytest-django [2] plugin provides the necessary integration to make py.test able to run a normal Django test suite. Then the pytest-cache [3] plugin offers an ``--lf`` (last-failed) option to run only the tests that failed in the last run, and the pytest-xdist [4] plugin offers the even-more-advanced ``--looponfail`` option, which "run your tests repeatedly in a subprocess. After each run py.test waits until a file in your project changes and then re-runs the previously failing tests. This is repeated until all tests pass after which again a full run is performed." If you're interested in advanced Python testing, I think py.test is near the top of the list of tools you should at least take for a spin.
