@eeshangarg we currently use python-ldap~=2.4 and although we are looking to upgrade we're not yet ready to do so. When installing this testing package we are forced to upgrade to python-ldap~=3.0 which conflicts

this also allows people to test without having python-ldap installed at all:

import sys
import fakeldap

sys.modules['ldap'] = fakeldap.ldap

Can you add a comment here explaining the motivation from the PR description? I think it'll be helpful for future folks reading the code to not need to spelink.

Makes sense to me; posted a quick comment on documentation.

Possibly we should also add a brief section at the bottom of the README mentioning this behavior, maybe with a title like "Usage without ldap installed".
