Yes, I was one of the folks proposing to take more care on separating things. And I'm also proposing running all tests for a single package in a namesapce which the package is using before deployment. I think testing is overall a quality management aspect. Let me explain quality management in a abstract context. If you have a house and the target is that arround your house the tings must be clean and arrangend. You will define soemthing like: All things arround my house have to be clean and not dirty. This quality management rule will work. If you define many different things like; My carpet in front of my hous door must be clean. This whould not work. Because why, if somebody takes the carpet and brings it to a cleaning company, probably the floor under the missing carpet is dirty then. And this does not fit with your overall quality target. This is similar to our testing concept. Using small test setups for single eggs without to focus on zope as a monolitic thing will fail.
