We don't really want to install requests + filelock. which are now required to use iris.tests. (cf problem here) All we actually use it for is to locate the installed test data. Which requires setting OVERRIDE_TEST_DATA_REPOSITORY and then using iris.tests.get_data_path.
iris.tests
OVERRIDE_TEST_DATA_REPOSITORY
iris.tests.get_data_path
So we might as well implement our own mechanism for accessing the iris test data (but could still use the same OVERRIDE key)
