I think this is a good direction to approach this, except that the
test runner script is a bad place to specify the namespace
exceptions. I think that it should be doable from inside the yast
runtime, something like
  import "Pkg" from "WFM";
or even

  import "Pkg", $["from": "WFM", "dir": "."];   // combine -n, -M

which is more flexible and does not need special syntax so it will be
acceesible even from other languages.

The improved import statement should enable mocking on a wider
scale. For now you could use the -n and -M options, but I am afraid
that the test harness will by default overwrite your changes to
runtest.sh. Changing that is hacky, but you can look to
mail/testsuite/Makefile.am for inspiration.
