Assuming you are asking about the unittest module...No, not unless you do something specific in the unit test, e.g. testing on a large data set would take more memory. Unittest just runs the code you tell it to and looks at the result. It doesn't instrument the code in any way. You do have to load the actual unittest module but I don't think it has any great memory requirements. Are you seeing this behaviour or just asking about it?
