Update tests to work with py.test py.test searches for any class that looks like a TestCase in the test directory and tries to run them as tests. Some of the classes that inherit TestCase are not meant to be run and are only intended to be "helper classes". Only the tests of the classes that inherit the "helper classes" should be run. If we convert these "helper classes" to be "mixins" py.test should not pick them up.

A number of tests uses the infrastructure of
	db_test_base.py

grep "from db_test_base" -l *.py
benchmark.py
session_common.py
test_anydbm.py
test_indexer.py
test_memorydb.py
test_mysql.py
test_postgresql.py
test_security.py
test_sqlite.py
test_userauditor.py

grep "import db_test_base" -l *.py
test_cgi.py
test_jinja2.py
test_mailgw.py
test_xmlrpc.py

grep "import memory\|from memory" -l *.py 
test_mailgw.py
test_memorydb.py
