Jonathan Niehof <jnie...@lanl.gov> added the comment: Might it make sense to skip-decorate those tests which require cross-filesystem? Put a test above the TestMove definition which compares tempfile.gettempdir() and os.path.dirname(__file__).
I don't know of an out-of-the-box function to see if two paths are on the same filesystem; I suppose one approach would be to walk up the directory tree of each, checking ismount.
