Comment (by fatman2):

 And there it is in line 7... I do indeed have a list of lists instead of a
 list of strings.

 I know what this is... it's user error! Here's a snippet from my custom
 extensions.py:

 {{{
 # run test suite
 class TestStep(ShellCommand):
    name = "testing complete"
    description = ["running tests"]
    descriptionDone = [description]
 }}}

 That last line should be:

 {{{
    descriptionDone = [name]
 }}}

 because name is a string, and description is a list.

 Good job on the troubleshooting Dustin, you got it in one. Thanks.
