Django Reverse Inverse

Is there an inverse method for Django's django.core.urlresolvers.reverse()?

I want a function f(x) such that f(django.core.urlresolvers.reverse('shadowfax')) == 'shadowfax'.

Does anybody have anything to say on whether this would be a proper approach to writing unit tests for methods that call .reverse()?

An updated version.

from django.urls import resolve
resolve( "/test" ).url_name

Probably shocking:

django.core.urlresolvers.resolve( "/test" ).url_name

It is perfectly good way to use it and it is even recommend in the documentation:
