This patch specifies a few guidelines that our API tests should follow. The motivations for this are twofold: 1. API tests have unexpected pitfalls that especially new contributors run into when writing tests. To prevent the frustration of letting people figure those pitfalls out by trial-and-error, let's just document them briefly in one place. 2. It prevents some arguing about what is the right way to write tests. I really like to have fast and reliable API test suite, but I also don't want to be the bogeyman that has to insist in every review that the test should be rewritten to not launch a process for no good reason. It's much easier to just point to a policy document. I omitted some guidelines that I think could be controversial (e.g., the whole "should assert message describe failure or success").
