You need bottle and testscenarios installed to run the tests.
$ pip install -r tests/requirements.txt
To execute the tests simply run:
$ python -m unittest discover
Every test is executed twice, once on a local test server with predownloaded original responses and, if it's possible, an other time on the original remote server.
To deactivate the execution or local or remote tests:
$ REMOTE=false python -m unittest discover
$ LOCAL=false python -m unittest discover
