Per https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:User_rights#Creating_a_new_group_and_assigning_permissions_to_it ff. it is

  • only possible to change group definitions via configuration change, not via the API
  • the "(all)" group which by default is associated with the createpage right can not be removed from users
  • and individual permissions can not be removed from users

I conclude it is not feasible to write a browser test that asserts if a page is protected by a permission.
