[Tutor] Missing in web.py and nosetests

[李龑]

Thanks again.

I add "print os.getcwd()" inside* app.py* and *app_test.py(the nosetests
script)  *and find they are different.
In app.py, the working dir is the whole directory including all
subdirectories, but in app_test.py the working dir is the tests directory
only.
I guess it's due to the working mechanism of the nosetests...

I also checked the permissions of those files, and they are all readable for
everyone :(

But I guess the problem is at the path of the template, the nosetests may
have a different way to know the template path. (But when I change the
pathname to be a absolute path, the nose goes wrong, and even the browser
can't see the webpage :(  ).

I also tried to add a* __init__.py* file into the templates directory, but
nothing different happens...(there is only 500 and AttributeError, "No
template named " + name)


the projects skeleton:
/gothonweb
    /bin
        __init__.py
        app.py
    /templates
        index.html
        hello_form.html
    /tests
        __init__.py
        app_tests.py
        tools.py
