Tests are broken: there is no Makefile.

get the tests running with some success,
but many failures due to not finding modules.

This commit from 2 days ago fixes the tests.
https://github.com/mypaint/mypaint/commit/3bce10c2afc1010760b4cf844f029ed7cb4b96a8

In absence of an update, I suggest (with a preference for #1):
1) Disabling the tests until the next update.
2) Trying to run the semi-borken tests.
