New issue 132 by cjlee112: seqdb / blast tests should clean up index files
http://code.google.com/p/pygr/issues/detail?id=132

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. run the test suite

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

tests/data contains a number of sequence files (either .fa or .fasta).   
Running the tests builds index files (e.g. .pureseq) or blast index files  
(e.g. .phr).  These files are left in place after the test is run.

This is problematic in two ways:
- it could cause tests to fail due to the presence of corrupt / incomplete  
index files (false positives)

- it could cause tests to fail to report a real problem (false negatives)  
because index files are already present before the test is run.
