The tests DO NOT run against existing repositories. NEVER point a Subversion on your repository until AFTER it has been tested. The test create repositories under subversion/tests/cmdline/svn-test-work/. They make that directory if it doesn't exist, but you can pre-create it as a symlink if you need to.
