[issue7325] tempfile.mkdtemp() does not return absolute pathname when relative dir is specified

[Jessica McKellar]

Thomas, I think the weirdness you were sensing when trying to adapt the nameCheck calls in test__RandomNameSequence after adding the abspath check is that those test cases really don't need nameCheck.

For example, test_get_six_char_str should be testing that _RandomNameSequence returns something that is both a string and 6 characters, not properties of some path manufactured around it.

I've attached a patch based on Thomas's that factors out the string check in nameCheck and has the tests in test__RandomNameSequence just use the string check.

The patch is against release27-maint.
