There is the following in the above log:

> 2293 error: cannot run gpg: No such file or directory

so maybe gpg isn't installed on the test system.

It looks like the test you added doesn't have the "GPG" prerequisite. Compare:

-> test_expect_success 'test bare signature atom'

with:

-> test_expect_success GPG 'show good signature with custom format'

There is a "GPG" prerequisite in the latter but not the former.
