Merge pull request #1658 from taosdata/feature/python-test-no-sudo

Now able to run Python test against local server, without sudo/root privileges

tests/pytest/simpletest_no_sudo.sh

+# This is the script for us to run our Python test cases with 2 important constraints:
+#    
+#	1. No root/sudo special rights is needed.
+#	2. No files are needed outside the development tree, everything is done in the local source code directory
+
+# First we need to set up a path for Python to find our own TAOS modules, so that "import" can work.
+export PYTHONPATH=$(pwd)/../../src/connector/python/linux/python3
+
+# Then let us set up the library path so that our compiled SO file can be loaded by Python
+export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$(pwd)/../../build/build/lib
+
+# Now we are all let, and let's run our cases!
+python3 ./test.py -m 127.0.0.1 -f insert/basic.py
