Amit, I think this is a bug in the startup code of runAll.py; we try to locate 
the folder containing the testfiles. It seems to be coming out as the empty string.

A way round this is to ensure that runAll.py has a folder. Try executing

python `pwd`/runAll.py

If that works it will confirm the problem. Can you let me know what version of 
python & reportlab you're using. I have tried to fix up the runAll script 
before, but it seems I have failed to locate the test folder properly.
