BUG: run tests in a tempdir, copy needed local files

[ev-br]

When ready, will fix gh-101

(edited)

With cda3e8b, gh-101 seems to be gone.
EDIT: gone locally indeed; fails on CI though. A structural problem with test.__file__?

Two things I do not understand ATM:

• the path to local files in test_testmod is clearly wrong. Why does TestLocalFiles pass with the doctest layer?
• in test_pytest_configuration, who filled the local_resources dict of dt_config?

I believe the local_resources attribute is updated in the local_file_cases module here: https://github.com/ev-br/scpdt/blob/a79e6465b52a30b57db36dc4fa0ab3820ea08c37/scpdt/tests/local_file_cases.py#L5

However, the local files are typically located in the same directory as the module referencing them so the values should just be the names of the files:

dt_config.local_resources = {'scpdt.tests.local_file_cases.local_files':
                                  ['local_file.txt'],
                            'scpdt.tests.local_file_cases.sio':
                                  ['octave_a.mat']   
                                  }

I pulled this branch locally and this slight change seems to work.

Could you send your changes as a PR for the CI to run?

That seems to have done the trick: #127
Can I push the commit to this PR so that I can close the one I just created?

[ev-br]

Yup sure, if that's more convenient.

Yup sure, if that's more convenient.

Actually, I'll cherry-pick it and squash my debug commits.

😅 too late

[ev-br]

OK :-).
Pulled, squashed, and pushed to here. CI is green.

Merging in. Thank you Sheila for the fix!
