Sometimes test_unique.js, introduced in bug 866571, leaves the dummy* files behind. Running the test again will then fail. You can fix that by removing the offending files yourself, of course.

I haven't really figured out any steps to reproduce yet, but it happened a couple of times so far, always on a slow Ubuntu VM... I *think* there test timeouts once or twice.

Would be great if the test made sure the directory was clean before running the code.

I couldn't reproduce it on OSX with 300+ times of test running.
Could we just collect all the paths and finally delete them to avoid that risk?
I suspect that this has been fixed in Bug 801376.
