Description Lucas Forschler 2011-04-06 13:32:18 PDT 
If you try to run test-webkitpy from a directory one level up from OpenSource, it fails.  It appears we are hard coding a directory path in the script to find the supporting files.

This is what I saw when I tried to run it outside of a webkit checkout:

webkitpy.test.main: INFO     Excluding: webkitpy.common.checkout.scm_unittest (use --all to include)

Ran 974 tests in 18.089s

OK

It passed though...  Could you explain what failure you see?

I suspect it may be getting confused by .svn files in the directory you're running it from?  I know dpranke did some hacking to help it find the WebKit checkout when run inside chromium.  That may be related to (or may have broken) your specific case.

I think Eric is correct about the diagnosis but confused about the blame. I didn't do anything to make this worse AFAIK, and it's been broken for quite a while.

See bug 56888 which is likely the same problem in a different direction.

bug 56888 looks to be culprit, marking as dupe.
