Thanks for the report @kloczek. This code exists to help users of oauth2client migrate to this library, so we do not want to remove this test.

Can you tell me a little more about your use case? A reasonable compromise to me seems to skip these tests if oauth2client is not found.

OK.
Is it nott would be better to skip all units from that file if oauth2client is not installed? 🤔

Yes, that is the solution I had in mind.
