I also tried to write an unittest-based test for PDB exposure, just for playing
with it a bit:
-
http://github.com/dalloliogm/biopython/blob/7dabfff5f7b523479bf8d6de120d0f6c7d03f7df/Tests/test_PDBexposure.py

I used the approach where one unit test is equivalent to a PDB file, instead of
a set of functions.
For example:
- test case 1: PDB.NeighborSearch is able to read a random generated PDB file
- test case 2: PDB.NeighborSearch is able to read a pdb file with only one
structure
- test case 3: PDB.NeighborSearch is able to read another specific pdb case
