Description

Some of the tests might fail if values written by the test get persisted to the DOOCS config file or the spectrum files (in the hist directory) from a previous run. In case of spectra, even rebuilding the cache does not help, since the spectum files are initially not present (one has to delete the hist folder).

Research direction

Start by examining the tests that write values to the DOOCS config file and the spectrum files in the hist directory. Reproduce the failures with persisted files present, including after rebuilding the cache. Done means the tests isolate or reset their persisted data so they pass consistently across repeated runs.
