implement virtualdisplay for testing

Issue #172 resolved
Reimar Bauer created an issue

Currently running py.test needs some minutes and opens a lot qt windows on your screen. While these windows always on top and do follow your mouse cursor you influence the test results if you type or click something. Also for some automated tests, e.g. on each commit, merge / pull request we need tests running in an environment without a physical display.

At the moment we could solve this on one of our platforms, prefered linux we could use a further development tool like jenkins. Of course if doable we are also interested in a solution for windows.
