Hi, This is just a namespace issue, it all runs within the same instance of Python. The temporary directory name could be placed into __builtin__, but that would be ugly and dangerous for a system test to do this. So another object which both the script and the code that executes the script have access to is the relax data store. So you could in the setUp() function have something like:
ds.tmpdir = mkdtemp() or maybe: ds[ds.current_pipe].tmpdir = mkdtemp() This will then store the name of the temporary directory, and can be directly accessible within the script. It's not the most elegant solution, but it will work. You can put anything in the relax data store, and then it'll be accessible to any other part of relax. Oh, and the tearDown() method can use the stored ds.tmpdir to delete that directory. Don't forget to reset the relax data store in tearDown to remove this variable though.
