It looks like an upstream package that we depend on did a code reorg and
since we're pointing at tip that broke us. I've got a code review to fix it
up now at https://review.openstack.org/#/c/19969/

That issue is only related to a few of the API tests, though, so if you're
seeing other failures post a traceback or two and I'll see if I can offer
any suggestions.

Although it is possible to test against a live mongo instance, the tests
should default to using MIM (an in-memory version of Mongo created for
tests). The tox configuration should set that up for you.

For kvm, you at least need libvirt installed. I'm pretty sure we have all
of the tests mocking out the actual calls, though.

The code in ceilometer.tests is support code for the actual tests. Because
of the nose configuration, it's easier to import it from there in the tests
that need it.
