Yes I was confused about this too. I was wondering if there is a utility package that has all the utility classes and functions but that's not the case anymore and i don't want to create that unless everyone agrees.

So taking the `PersonaTestUser` path. Also @zacc pointed out that we should connect to the SMTP server in `setUp` because if that fails, then we know that the test didn't fail. its something wrong with the `setUp`. And I think it makes sense. So I am sticking to that.
