Description

ApplicationHelper#render_if_exist was introduced in r19799 for #33102. After discussion in that issue and subsequent issue #36524, it was decided to remove the sidebars from the import views after all with r21390 and r21391. It looks like that with that, ApplicationHelper#render_if_exist became unused and obsolete.
If it is indeed confirmed obsolete, it might be desirable to deprecate the method and remove it (along with its tests) in the end.

FWIW: the names of the test methods contain a typo; s/redner/render.
