### Root-enabled instances during testing
When writing tests that exercise root-only functionality, make sure to set `datasette.root_enabled = True` on the `Datasette` instance. Root permissions are only granted automatically when Datasette is started with `datasette --root` or when the flag is enabled directly in tests.
