process.chdir is not available in workers #566
Description
Describe the bug
if you're testing node utilities, maybe ones that help interact with the file system, and you need to call chdir, there is no way to test that behavior because all tests run in node workers, which aren't allowed to call process.chdir
Reproduction
it('repro', () => {
process.chdir('anywhere')
}raises:
TypeError: process.chdir() is not supported in workers
Is there a way to opt certain tests to not run in a worker?
otherwise I'd need to test anything that uses chdir, in mocha or something.
