Description
It would be nice to switch to the TestItem setup for tests to have modular tests which can be tested seperately.
At the moment this is blocked by the setup of the testcube because we should avoid to redownload the esdc subset for every testitem separately. Therefore, this would need either a global test setup capability for the @testitemmacro or it would need a way to save the germanycube as an artifact which can then be reused in every testitem separately.

Research direction
Start by tracing the current testcube setup and the TestItemRunner or @testitem test entry points. Determine how the esdc subset and germanycube are currently downloaded, then compare a global test setup with reusing a saved germanycube artifact; done means modular TestItem tests can run separately without redownloading the subset for each item.
