CLIMATE-297 - Fix test_local breaking if run outside of tests directory

- This is a pretty hacky way of fixing this problem. It uses the inspect
  module to get the location of the test_local module (which we also
  have to import in test_local, which is hideous). The path is then
  manipulated so that it points to the /trunk/examples folder. So, it
  doesn't break if you run outside of the tests folder but it does
  depend on the repo layout present at Apache. Ultimately, the outside
  dependencies should be removed if possible.
