You could have a look at what I've done in pydevd (soon to be removed from the archive), which was a complex case. But I'd suggest using the syntax --deselect=tests/test_file.py::test_testname instead of -k; it can be given multiple times, and as long as there are no spaces or weird characters in the test names (for example, tests/test_file.py::test_testname[this is a parameter]), it works fine when stored as a shell variable and then expanded without quotes.
