   Mostly I agree with Marco. You can't assume that writing to a global path or 
acquiring a global resource is ok, because this prevents to run tests in 
parallel in different copies of MXNet which should be possible, as developers 
often have several copies of the same repo to test different things.
   
   So this test should write to a different location by means of a temporary 
directory.
   The fact that is not a good practice that a unit test writes to disk and 
instead should avoid IO or use a memory buffer is a broader discussion.
