Some test files have a set_local_path()/restore_path() pair at the top, and some don't. Is there any reason to be changing sys.path like this in the test modules? If not, I'll take them out when I see them.
The idea behind set_local_path is that it allows running tests inside subpackages without the need to rebuild the entire package.
Ah, thanks; I'd forgotten about that. I'll leave them alone, then. I made a note for myself to make sure it's possible to run tests locally without doing a full build/install (where practical).
