----------------------

Because there are so many ways you could have setup your BioSQL
database, you have to tell the unit test a few bits of information by
editing the file Tests/setup\_BioSQL.py and filling in the following
database, you have to tell the unit test a few bits of information.
If you installed biopython using pip then the relevant [**Tests**](https://github.com/biopython/biopython/tree/master/Tests)
folder would not have been copied. If this is the case one can
perform check out (or export) using:

```bash
svn export https://github.com/biopython/biopython/trunk/Tests

Please don't recommend using svn here. If you want to avoid needing git, we can just download a tar-ball or zip file from GitHub using e.g.

wget https://github.com/biopython/biopython/archive/biopython-172.zip
unzip biopython-172.zip

Or,

wget https://github.com/biopython/biopython/archive/biopython-172.tar.gz
tar -zxvf biopython-172.tar.gz

Also this lets us recommend getting the tests to match the version of Biopython installed, which should prevent test failures from a version mis-match (although that would be rare with BioSQL as this code is fairly static these days).
