gpg-agent and pinentry docs and testing

Is there a way documented how to use pinentry in automated testing?
Especially GUI testing?
I have heard that there are keys possible without passphrase
Is this true for both gpg and gpgsm?
As pinentry would not pop up then, I guess, this would only allow
to test part of the code path, as there is no call to pinentry now.
Is there a different way to feed the gpg-agent a passphrase
when it calls pinentry? Maybe a pinentry for testing?
When the no-grab option is given I guess that regular X11 testing based tool
could just fill in the passphrase. Has somebody already done this and
is willing to share hints?
BTW: I found minor issues with documentation, while search for this.
See attached patch.
Is there a way with textinfo to have "info gpgsm" also open the
same page as "info gnupg2" does now?
