I would propose this:
In your classes __init__ (or in the init of your mixin specially for
this) check for an environment-variable or a django-setting to tell you
the browser to use. With a fallback if nothing is defined.

Then when you run the tests locally, you can decide which browser to
use. And when run in jenkins, the browser is a matrix-variable giving
you functional tests with all the defined browsers.

Have fun,
