    Description

      I build and run tests as UserB, while the Qt source code is owned by UserA. I see several tests failing because they try to touch the source directory.

      Will create subtasks for failing tests.

      Ideally qtestlib would provide functionality for automatically assigning a proper write location, which would be outside of both source dir and build dir.
