But it's hardly useful for that. Most of the tests assume the default
settings and hardcode the expected faces. If the user changes, say,
rainbow-delimiters-pick-face-function, or pretty much any other
customization option for that matter, the tests are likely to break,
even though rainbow-delimiters itself still works fine — the testsuite
just doesn't expect rainbow-delimiters-pick-face-function to return
anything but the default faces, with the default way of cycling
between colors.

I'd say that's a bug, too. When in Rome, do as the Romans do, and
neither of the de facto standard Emacs repositories (GNU ELPA and
MELPA) ship their packages with tests.
