I disagree. Running regression tests towards bleeding edge development
version of pylsp is not the intention. You cannot expect, that everybody
running Emacs tests has installed pylsp like this. But she could have
installed the Debian pylsp package.

I have used the most recent pylsp package from Debian. If it doesn't
cooperate with eglot, we have a problem.

I recommend that you investigate why the tests fail. And if this sounds
too much, at least the sanity checks shall be improved. (skip-unless
(executable-find "pylsp")) doesn't seem to be sufficient then.
