First look at this code when you create the button :
buttonCreatorInstance = CustomButtom()
self.windowNorth = self.menuLikeWindow("windowNorth")
self.windowNorthButton =
buttonCreatorInstance.buttonCreator(self.windowNorth, "buttonWindNorth",
self.windowsList)
Your custom button is created locally with no text and no parent. It will
die after this function ends.
You call the creator method on it, passing a parent and text. And save None
as the result to your windowNorthButton field.
Now look at how the button is created:
def buttonCreator(self, parentWindow, buttonName, windowsList):
self.buttonTest = QtGui.QPushButton(parent = parentWindow)
self.buttonTest.setObjectName(buttonName)
self.buttonTest.setText("test")
You create your button with just the parent. You set the object name to the
text, which isn't a display property. And then you set the text to a hard
coded literal.

Yes. Instead of that creator method creating a QPushButton, just have it
create a CustomButtom, and also don't make it a method of CustomButtom.
Honestly, it feels like all of that creator code should be in your
CustomButtom.__init__
