On a larger note, while I think all these safeguards may have had a
place at one time, I'm wondering whether we can't simplify things at
least a bit... maybe at least have all the test suites share a client
API version so we don't have to change umpteen files? Since those are
tested anyway, I think i'd be ok with them sharing that variable, or
maybe even pulling it from client.py. The ones in client, PM and UM
should probably remain, though I'd be open to suggestions on why it's
time for them to go too.
Not your job to fix that Rich, just thinking out loud because the
overhead for the api versions is larger than we might like.
I debated that in the past, and concluded that one possible advantage of
the current approach is that it, in theory, it makes it easy to find and
update those unit tests that depend upon the api. However, I could see
either way being acceptable.
