We could use a MediaWiki sqlite database.  I am guessing (hoping) that 
mediawiki has a test runner which sets up a test instance of MediaWiki to run 
tests against.  If so, we should try to use the MediaWiki test framework to set 
up the MediaWiki instance on localhost.  If not, wtf, someone needs to build 
one of those.

However, I dont see anything like that; their .travis.yml only appears to set 
up an empty database instance without a http interface.  @hashar , am I wrong 
there?  Or do you know if someone is working on building a way for the 
MediaWiki tests to run live tests against the http frontend processor?  For 
pywikibot needs, it would be sufficient if it only connected api.php to a port; 
we dont need to access index.php.
