- don't spin up app and chromedriver between each test
- catching signals also tears down the app
- do layout reset between tests, but assume that tests will not leave a modal opened.
Use selenium built-in waiting function and fix flakiness around clicking the alertify OK button
- we think the OK button does not have its event bound when it is created.
If you see more flakiness around clicking the alertify OK button, let us know. The element is clickable but we have to arbitrarily wait for the event to be bound and that timing may vary system to system.
The feature tests are about 7 seconds faster now.

To chase down a set of tests that were failing together, we wanted to run
deeper trees of tests. We changed the behavior of the --pkg argument to
runtests.py so it runs tests under a package and its subpackages, instead
of for a single node.
It gave us more flexibility in what tests to run. This also includes the
--exclude option.
To run tests for a single node, ".tests" can be appended to the package path.

1. Code changes (due to drop objects functionality).
2. Quoting for database names in drop databases.
3. Code changes for import errors for pickle_path and advanced_config variables.
- Test framework support API testing with multiple server for this we need to modify test_config.json(for user it’s test_config.json.in) and test_advanced_config.json(for user it’s test_advanced_config.json.in). Server details of PG and PPAS are included in both .in files.
- Removed the logic of logging in the test client on each test scenario(As per Khushboo's comment in previous email). We need this logic in test cases under ‘browser/tests/’ as for test scenarios like change password and invalid login test cases as test client should be logged out first. So, as per this the code is slightly modified in ‘browser/tests/’.
