Test mocking with HTTPretty

Registered by Jamie Lennox

The current testing process involves faking out a lot of client code. This has two major problems:
1. A lot of what we are testing is mocking infrastructure rather than actual code.
2. It is very reliant on the current structure of the client.

In general i would like to push towards adopting the keystoneclient session object as the base means of communication, but first we must make the testing process more resilient and less tied to how the client currently works.
