fyi, I needed to up the mocha timeout (before it automatically fails a test) from 2 seconds to 10 sec. This is an extremely high number to be sure, but at 2 and 4 seconds there were some failures. 

A test taking 2 seconds is unfortunately a risk since we're hitting the actual wizards server in some thread that was hibernated after starting the timer.

This is kind of a feel bad, but may be a necessary evil giving that execSync is being kept out.
