Is there any sample Python scripts that create Security Descriptors?

I'm not sure what you mean by "pick up all the existing classes" ?

If you want to have your tests run by "make test", then you will want to
edit source{3,4}/selftest/tests.py and add a call to planpythontestsuite.

To just run the tests manually, use something like:

PYTHONPATH=<samba-dir>/bin/python -m unittest samba.my_test_set
