> lang/py/test/test_tether_word_count.py is somewhat fragile. When it fails, 
> the true failure is obscured by [a secondary 
> error|https://github.com/apache/avro/blob/master/lang/py/test/test_tether_word_count.py#L210]
>  because {{exfile}} is first defined on [line 
> 179|https://github.com/apache/avro/blob/master/lang/py/test/test_tether_word_count.py#L179]
>  and may not even exist in the {{finally}} block.
> I propose a significant refactor of this test to make the results clearer and 
> to adhere to more idiomatic testing and python by:
> # Isolating the main test from its setup and teardown using standard setUp 
> and tearDown.
> # Isolating the subprocess try/finally from the entire test setup/teardown.
> # Avoid having to manage multiple temporary files by running the entire test 
> in a temporary directory.
