Description

The current test_local.py file tests does not cover the following functions in local.py:

1. load_WRF_2d_files()

2. load_dataset_from_multiple_netcdf_files()

3. load_NLDAS_forcingA_files()

4. load_GPM_IMERG_files()

To test these functions, necessary datasets are required. Downloading the dataset from the internet everytime the tests execute is not an efficient strategy.
Hence, create mock datasets and objects that can be used to test these functions.
