[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #54718] __run_test_suite__ doesn't preserve start or working directory

[Mike Miller]

Follow-up Comment #11, bug #54718 (project octave):

Yes, I can now reproduce this with a much narrower example. Run the following
as a script file or as a one-liner at the prompt:


fn = fullfile (__octave_config_info__ ("octtestsdir"), "libinterp", "corefcn",
"debug.cc-tst");
chdir ("/tmp");
test (fn);
chdir (get_home_directory ());
pwd ()


Inside the script or one-liner, the 'pwd' at the end is reported correctly as
my home directory. But after returning to the Octave prompt the current
directory is set back to /tmp.
