Subject: tests: Rework XMLRPC tests to avoid live server
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=72e1d03fe7d691a6e34049a9faaab61af5f8117f;p=thirdparty%2Fpatchwork.git

tests: Rework XMLRPC tests to avoid live server

This should speed them up somewhat and make the distinction between the
unit tests and upcoming e2e tests clearer.
