          Make sure that the admin user is not editing a course page or any other page. When I logged in directly and went to run the unit tests I did not get any of these errors. Peace - Anthony

              Just had a look into this with Anthony.
              The capability check shouldn't, or isn't expected to be made by this code. It is only been made because $USER->editing isn't empty.
              In Anthony's case he had been editing a course before running the unit test.
              Certainly it is still a bug but it's no longer a blocker - everything passes when running the block manager unit tests with editing off.
              I'll add details about a small patch to fix this shortly.

              Cheers
              Sam
