766740 - Make live functional tests runnable out-of-the-box

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Cloud Services Graveyard :: Server: Sync, defect)

Description

[Ryan Kelly [:rfkelly]]

As of Bug 751485, running the live functional tests with a tokenserver requires some additional dependencies (M2Crypto, PyBrowserID and requests).  We don't install them by default as part of `make build` because M2Crypto is a PITA to install correctly.

Once PyBrowserID drops M2Crypto as a hard dependency, we should add the others to the build process so that the live functional tests can run out-of-the-box.

Either that or use a python virtualenv setup just for testing...

Dependencies updated, this should now work without having to muck around with M2Crypto etc:

https://github.com/mozilla-services/server-syncstorage/commit/21affe9f5f0ecf5e4719d4a552f60b964463fe1c

:jbonacci, to test this out, take a clean checkout of aitc and do a `make build`.  You should then be able to run the functional tests against stage without needing to install anything else into the virtualenv.

The above statement is now quite true.
We found different results depending on whether or not the following lines were used:

$ ln -sf `python -c 'import M2Crypto; print M2Crypto.__file__' | xargs dirname`* ./lib/*/site-packages
$ ./bin/pip install PyBrowserID

This lead to the following new ticket:
Bug 779024 - live functional tests differ with/without M2Crypto

Holding off on Verification of this ticket until bug 779024 is addressed.

Bug 779024 should now be fixed.

Verified in local installs. Assume good in larger deploys.
