Comment (by BevanR):

 I found answers to some of my questions on WP's "Make" blog:
 https://make.wordpress.org/core/2013/09/13/javascript-unit-tests-for-
 core/.

 I thought of a reliable way to test without spying.  It compares scores of
 long passwords that are weak before the threshold.  The tests check that
 WP's score for a password that is strong only after the threshold;

 - matches WP's score for a password that is weak both before and after the
 threshold.
 - matches Zxcvbn's score for the weak first part of the password.
 - is less than Zxcvbn's score for a password that is strong only after the
 threshold.
