Not trivial, but doable: there is all the infrastructure to do so in t/: install-wiki.sh to automatically install Mediawiki, and then a testsuite that interacts with it. This has been written under the assumption that the developer had a lighttpd instance running on localhost, but this can probably be adapted to run on Travis-CI (install lighttpd & Mediawiki in the install: part, and run the tests afterwards), so that anyone can run the tests by just submitting a pull-request to Git-Mediawiki. If you are to work more on Git-Mediawiki, don't underestimate the usefullness of the testsuite (for example, Git-Mediawiki was developped against a prehistoric version of Mediawiki, the testsuite can help ensuring it still works on the lastest version), nor the fun of playing with install scripts and CI systems ;-).
