I have a weird issue on my Linux machine where the slow test doesn't complete for some reason. It gets stuck on 99% for dream and finish is never printed for NS. Please can you investigate on a Vm or IDAaas

This PR introduces a new form of GUI System Test which creates an instance of RasCal2, performs a sequence of events (clicks, typing, etc) and tests the validity of the output. This is more useful than isolated unit tests as it tests theinteraction between different parts of the program and more closely resembles a realistic user workflow.
System tests inherit the
GuiSystemBaseclass, which handles thesetUpand tearDownof theself.main_window` instance, simplifying how the tests are written.Unit tests and System tests are differentiated in pytest. We can run only unit tests via:
pytest testsorpytest tests --run-unit-testsSystem tests are run by default but can be skipped via:
pytests tests --skip_system_testsTests which take too long are marked with a "skip" mark, to run these, use the flag:
pytests tests --run_slow_testsIf we want to include screenshot/eyes tests in the future, a flag can be created for them to differentiate screenshot tests from unit and system tests.
