This directory will be used to set up packages used for testing if they need any special handling which should not be applied to the system-wide setup. For instance, many of the tests to be run on the Django application should be run with a standard Django environment; but there are some Django test features which are broken in 0.9.6, and need patching in order to do the testing, like the ability to create a test database to run unit tests, according to this issue and patch: http://code.djangoproject.com/changeset/5106
