os.path.join uses the separator that is correct for your OS.
Since you are running on Windows it uses \
The preferred way of constructing a path is to do it
all in os.path, that way, regardless of OS it will always
produce the right thing. But it can get a bit clunky
(especially with Windows drive letters included) so
most folks cheat and use hard coded strings. But as you
discovered that can lead to mixed separators.
Try:
os.path.join('a','b','c','d','test')
