Hi, I undestand Databricks Connect is used for (that why I'm trying it out) but I would also like to be able to run tests. What do you mean with "different local mode"? 

As a side-topic, I tried running pytest tests with Databricks Connect session (both spark-connect server running in container at sc://localhost or Azure Databricks via DatabricksSession) and some of the tests fail with "Windows fatal exception: access violation" in both cases so that doesn't really work either.
