Subject: Rake TestTask running its block anytime rake is invoked

--
require 'rake/testtask'

Rake::TestTask.new do |t|
  chdir './../'
  puts pwd
end

desc "print working directory"
task :pwd do
  puts "Working Directory #{pwd}"
end
--

$ rake -T
cd ./../
/Users/scudco/projects
rake chdir  # change directory
rake test   # Run tests

$ rake chdir
cd ./../
/Users/scudco/projects
Working Directory /Users/scudco/projects


So the question is why does the chdir in the TestTask get executed every
time no matter what? It is quite frustrating when code specific to a
block is being executed for every other task. Any ideas?
