I think this would require a definition of what exactly entails the term 
"right paradigm". Also, calling for an "easier way" instinctively makes 
me ask: "For the users, or the developers?".

As long as there is a way to run tests for out-of-core Tools, and it's 
documented and reproducible for the user, it feels "right" to me.

If you can think of a more advanced setup, or would like to talk about 
what exactly is annoying you, let's discuss it.
