    Remove some useless unit tests · 1e4a4178
    Julien Muchembled authored
    Many "unit" tests (!= "threaded" tests) don't do more than checking
    implementation details, and increase coverage artificially. As with testEvent
    in commit 71e30fb9, most of these tests will
    either be removed or rewritten as threaded tests.
    
    The fact that the remaining unit tests actually cover code that other test
    don't gives motivation to maintain them. It will be also less code to update
    when switching to https://pypi.python.org/pypi/mock
    
    I proceeded as follows:
    
    1. Measure coverage for all tests except unit tests. While checking my work,
       I found that coverage stats for threaded/functional/zodb tests are quite
       unstable, so I restarted from the beginning by doing this measure several
       times and only keeping the intersection of coverage data.
    
    2. Measure coverage individually for each 'unit' tests, and substract the
       each result with the data in 1.
    
    3. The candidates for deletion are those without any code covered.
    
    Tests I didn't delete:
    
    - neo.tests.master.testElectionHandler: I always do minimal changes about
      election, as long as there's no serious review.
    
    - neo.tests.master.testMasterPT.MasterPartitionTableTests.test_13_outdate
    
    - 4 tests in neo.tests.testPT:
      test_01_Cell, test_04_removeCell, test_06_clear, test_08_filled
    
    - neo.tests.storage.testStorage{MySQL,SQLite}
    
    - neo.tests.testUtil.UtilTests.testReadBufferRead
    
    In a way, this commit is actually quite conservative. There are still many
    useless tests that only check error paths and for simple tested methods, this
    is just duplicating thie tested code.
