Description

I tried "cp -a tests ~/tmp/django-tests" and then ran the tests from ~/tmp/django-tests. It turns out you get this failure:

======================================================================
FAIL: test_filepathfield_folders (forms_tests.tests.test_fields.FieldsTests)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/rhertzog/tmp/django-tests/forms_tests/tests/test_fields.py", line 1586, in test_filepathfield_folders
    self.assertTrue(got[0].endswith(exp[0]))
AssertionError: False is not true

Printing got and exp before the test you see this:

(u'/home/rhertzog/tmp/django-tests/forms_tests/tests/filepath_test_files/directory', u'directory')
(u'/tests/forms_tests/tests/filepath_test_files/directory', u'directory')

As you can see the difference is in the "/django-tests/" vs "/tests/" that do not match.

I would suggest that tests should not depend on the name of the top-level directory in which they are stored... it's an easy patch and I will submit it soon as PR.
