[Wikidata] Changing the datatype of a property in test.wikidata.org

[Loic Dachary]

Hi,

I'd like to run integration tests using test.wikidata.org[1] and the "subclass 
of" property. Unfortunately it already exist ... with a datatype that is 
different from what wikidata.org has (wikibase-item)[2]. It does not seem to be 
possible to change that via the API[3]. Deleting a property does not seem 
possible either.  asked a month ago in the thread "Deleting properties / items 
in test.wikidata.org".

It's not an absolute blocker: I can add code so that "subclass of" is a random 
string instead when test.wikidata.org is used. But before doing that and making 
integration tests more difficult to debug and implement, I'd like to be sure 
I'm not missing something.

How do you suggest I deal with this problem ?

Cheers

Properties don't have an identity besides their ID - so you could in
test.wd just rename the subclass of property and reclaim that name.
