use local nodejs for tests

[xi]

My local acceptance tests failed, that's how I noticed that we don't use the local nodejs when using polytester.

Do we still need to execute source source_env after this fix?

[xi]

I am not sure as I did not use source_env myself. But thanks for pointing out it existed. Now the question is: Should we use source_env or my version?

we should prefere your fix, it does not rely on manual steps.
Then we can remove the source_env script and the documentation

Are you sure that source_env is no longer required? e.g. also sets LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

This is needed if you compile python with PIL (image processing) and libjpeg/libpng.
As long as we have this as an installation option we should keep it.

What ist about A3_ROOT (see src/adhocrac_frontend/base.cfg)

[xi]

I think we can leave source_env as it is. It may be helpful in many situations, but with this change it is less required.

you are right.

A3_ROOT is only used here: src/mercator/mercator/tests/fixtures/fixturesMercatorProposals1.py is this still needed by the frontend ?
