Sorry, but this is not an acceptable way. adding rm to allowed externals opens up the door for potential abuse.
The solution should be entirely TestCase-bound. That is, clear the test uploaded media directory on tearDown. e.g.

Oh OK, thanks for the feedback -- I'll change it to do it in tearDown

Actually, I noticed in
that there was already an attempt to clean test media. The problem is that it didn't do anything since the test app used a different MEDIA_ROOT.
So I changed the test app settings to use the same MEDIA_ROOT. Would this be acceptable?
make clean only removes .tox and __pycache__
Do not allow rm external command
Use MEDIA_ROOT and STATIC_ROOT from wagtail.tests.settings

This PR adds cleaning the media files from
tests/testapp/test-mediabetween each tox env run. It actually does so before each run (if a user wants to inspect the created files after a test run).Alternatively, the files could be removed after test runs, leaving it all clean.
Additionnally, it adds tox to the optional testing dependency bundle so that when users initially runs
pip install -e .[testing], they are ready to go.Lastly, it fixes the relative path in the
make cleanrecipe of themakefile.
