Using TEST_OUTPUT_FILE_NAME with Django does not create intermediate folders specified in TEST_OUTPUT_DIR

Title is self descriptive.
I am using unittest-xml-reporting with Django specifying both TEST_OUTPUT_DIR and TEST_OUTPUT_FILE_NAME.

According to the README for the TEST_OUTPUT_DIR setting: " If the directory couldn't be found, the test runner will try to create it before generate the XML files."
Also for TEST_OUTPUT_FILE_NAME: "Tells the test runner to output a single XML report with this filename under os.path.join(TEST_OUTPUT_DIR, TEST_OUTPUT_FILE_NAME)".

That implies that using both settings is allowed and intermediate folders will be created.
The problem is that intermediate folders will be created using os.makedirs in xmlrunner/result.py:451 if test_runner.output is a string, but when using TEST_OUTPUT_FILE_NAME test_runner.output is a file object opened in xmlrunner.extra.djangotestrunner.py:35. That line fails if intermediate folders do not exist.

I guess the simplest solution is to also run os.makedirs before the context manager opening the file.

thanks for the report and the fix.

No worries. Can I ask how often do you do releases? More specifically, when can we expect to see this on PyPI? I will point pip directly to git to pull this fix meanwhile, but it'd be nice to go back to PyPI.
