From E-Mail discussion: Approach A: "We could override the relevant test functions to skip the test if run on a client setup. That detection could be implemented by defining a constant in WikibaseClient.php (and a different constant in Wikibase.php). E.g. WB_CLIENT and WB_REPO, or some such." Approach B: "Alternatively, split off the write tests from the read tests, and put the write test into the repo extension. ORMRowTest could take a flag in the constructor, telling it whether write operations should be tested."
