run-tests: $TESTDIR can be something else than $PWD $TESTDIR is expected to be the directory were the test lives, and is often used to reference helper functions. However, it is now set to $PWD at test invocation time, so if `run-tests.py` is called from another folder, the test will fail. The solution is to force $TESTDIR to be the base directory of the test itself, irrespective of where the runner is called from.

If you just want a checklist to follow, you can go straight to

https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/ContributingChanges#Submission_checklist

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
