i too avoid running test code or checks for test code in production.
instead i switch on startup (i.e. in __init__.py:configure)
here i check for flags in the setting and then register (scan) or ignore
certain files or folders (i.e. to mock external authentication in
development etc.)
this means that the views, tests etc. don't have to concern themselves
with such distinctions.
IMHO it's the same pattern we already use by protecting views with
permissions and/or registering views for particular methods - which
means you don't have any if/then constructs in your view checking for
permissions or request methods.
pyramid makes it easy for you to write small, concise view code, hooray! :-)
here's a sample snippet from a project of mine:
if settings.get('testing'):
config.include('.testing')
ignore = ['.testing', '.tests']
if not asbool(settings.get('demo')): # pragma: no cover, tests run in
demo mode
ignore.append('.demo') # don't setup demo services in non-demo mode
config.scan(ignore=ignore)
if asbool(settings.get('preview')): # pragma: no cover, tests run in
preview mode
config.add_static_view(name='/_preview_',
path=settings.get('preview_templates',
'backrest:templates/preview_templates'))
