I could be off base here but in regards to the the execution of
translation initialization I believe that is occurring because the
django.core.management.base attempts to switch the translation to
english if the can_import_settings attribute is set:
if self.can_import_settings:
from django.utils import translation
translation.activate('en-us')
According to the docs this is done because django-admin (manage.py)
executes some database stuff related to permissions. Since this is
set to True by the BaseCommand this is likely the cause.
You might try creating your own custom command that executes the test
runner but only after setting this attribute to false and checking
your results then.
