[python-bugzilla] Using --bugzilla=<something besides the default> fa

Brief:
------

Question 1:

What is the best way to test using pyhon-bugzilla without writing to the
live system at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/xmlrpc.cgi ?

Question 2:

Should python-bugzilla support accessing
https://partner-bugzilla.redhat.com/xmlrpc.cgi
or am I misinterpreting the output of
"bugzilla --help"?

Details:
--------


My ultimate goal is to write some scripts that use python-bugzilla to
query and modify BZs. I don't want to test with live system. I was told
that partner-bugzilla.redhat.com mirrors production but changes written
there won't show up bugzilla.redhat.com

However when I try to use partner-bugzilla.redhat.com for the
--bugzilla flag the command fails.

When I use a browser I successfully  access
https://partner-bugzilla.redhat.comIs there a bette

Is there a better way to test my script without writing to the live
system at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/xmlrpc.cgi ?

I only show the login sub-command examples in this email but I've
observed this with both the query and login sub-commands.

Here is a "failed" attempt to log in to:
--bugzilla="https://partner-bugzilla.redhat.com/xmlrpc.cgi"

dhcp-10-16-61-114 % /usr/bin/bugzilla
--bugzilla="https://partner-bugzilla.redhat.com/xmlrpc.cgi" --debug

The "almost" same command succeeds when attempting to log in to
the default of:
--bugzilla="https://bugzilla.redhat.com/xmlrpc.cgi"

dhcp-10-16-61-114 % /usr/bin/bugzilla
