How to run several tests with one Firefox instance, Selenium WebDriver with Python?

I'm learning to write automatic tests using Selenium WebDriver with Python. I have couple of tests in WidgetArea class, I would like to run them all in one instance of Firefox, I know that I need to specify setUp and tearDown as @classmethod but I do not know what else should I change to achieve that goal? Code can be found below:

import unittest
from selenium import webdriver


class WidgetArea(unittest.TestCase):

@classmethod
def setUp(cls):

    # create new firefox session
    cls.driver = webdriver.Firefox()
    cls.driver.implicitly_wait(30)
    cls.driver.maximize_window()
    # navigate to aplication page
    cls.driver.get("http://demoqa.com/")
    cls.driver.title

def test_widget_area(self):

    elements = self.driver.find_elements_by_xpath("//div[@id='secondary']/aside")
    self.assertEqual(4, len(elements))

def test_widget_list(self):

    elements = self.driver.find_elements_by_xpath("//ul[@id='menu-widget']/li")
    self.assertEqual(7, len(elements))

def test_interaction(self):

    elements = self.driver.find_elements_by_xpath("//ul[@id='menu-interactions']/li")
    self.assertEqual(5, len(elements))

@classmethod
def tearDown(cls):
    cls.driver.quit()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    unittest.main

I don't use unittests with selenium, so I can advise tests in specific framework which you can adjust and update as you like despite of unittests rules:

from selenium import webdriver

class WidgetArea():

  def setUp(self):
    self.driver = webdriver.Firefox()
    self.driver.implicitly_wait(30)
    self.driver.maximize_window()
    self.driver.get("http://demoqa.com/")

  def tearDown(self):
    self.driver.quit()

  def widget_area(self):
    elements = self.driver.find_elements_by_xpath("//div[@id='secondary']/aside")
    try:
        assert len(elements) == 4
        print("Test pass")
    except AssertionError:
        print("Assertion failed")

  def widget_list(self):
    elements = self.driver.find_elements_by_xpath("//ul[@id='menu-widget']/li")
    try:
        assert len(elements) == 7
        print("Test pass")
    except AssertionError:
        print("Assertion failed")

  def interaction(self):
    elements = self.driver.find_elements_by_xpath("//ul[@id='menu-interactions']/li")
    try:
        assert len(elements) == 5
        print("Test pass")
    except AssertionError:
        print("Assertion failed")

  def main(self):
    self.setUp()
    self.widget_area()
    self.widget_list()
    self.interaction()
    self.tearDown()


if __name__ == '__main__':
    new = WidgetArea()
    new.main()

All assertions will be performed during single browser session.
