Relative paths for reports are relative to current folder after all tests completed, not to the original pester folder.

What is the issue?

Tests can set current path, and we generate reports before we return to the original PWD. So the test results can be placed into a "random" folder depending on which tests user executed.

Invoke-Pester -Container (New-PesterContainer -ScriptBlock { 
    Describe "a" {
        It "b" { 
            $testDrive = (Get-PSDrive TestDrive).Root
            $f = New-Item -ItemType Directory -Path "$testDrive/will-delete" -Force
            Set-Location $f
        }
    }
}) -CI

Will fail with,

Result 1 - Error 1:Resolve-Path: Cannot find path 'C:\Users\jajares\AppData\Local\Temp\f9da4b3f-18d6-4e1d-9755-db812fe31754\will-delete' because it does not exist.

Because I stepped into test drive directory, which was then cleaned up by test drive, but the report code is trying to get current path relative to the current directory.

Expected Behavior

We would reset the path to original pwd before we start writing reports, so we resolve relative to the path from which invoke-pester was invoked.

I am actually using 5.7.1 pester, will double check if latest fixed this.

Good catch. Should still be broken in latest. We should just resolve the outputpaths early in Resolve-TestResultConfiguration and Resolve-CoverageConfiguration
