Tres,

I'm hoping you've got a take on this one...

I remember seeing stuff on the zope-coders list about tests that import sys.path
being and futzing with it being 'bad'. However, if you do:

python /whereever/testrunner.py -d mytestsdir

..you can't import Zope 'cos the it's living in /wherever/your_zope_base

So, what's the 'good' way of doing this now? Is testrunner still the offical
Zope framework to be using?

cheers,

Chris
