[Python-modules-team] Bug#927756: Run provided tests at package built time

[Yaroslav Halchenko]

Package: python-github
Version: 1.40-1
Severity: wishlist

It is typical for packages to run their tests batteries at the package build
time.  This helps to guarantee their correct operation for the to be uploaded
version on Debian systems.

I have tried

  http_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:9/ HOME=/tmp python -m github.tests -v

on my laptop within virtualenv installing github module from within source
package (since github.tests is not shipped ATM, separate issue).  And it seems
to pass so it seems to not  require network access and doesn't rely on any HOME
configuration.
