make devtest does not work with public db namespace #8508

Description
When running test on 1.13-dev I encountered a number of errors like
[ FAIL ] job 110 + When I navigate the menu and select the item at "General Journal > Year End"
[ DEBUG ] job 110 xt/66-cucumber/01-basic/closing.feature line 28
( DIAG ) job 110 in step at xt/66-cucumber/01-basic/closing.feature line 28.
( DIAG ) job 110 not ok - Step ran to completion
( DIAG ) job 110 # Failed test 'Step ran to completion'
( DIAG ) job 110 # at /usr/local/share/perl/5.40.0/Test/BDD/Cucumber/Executor.pm line 655.
( DIAG ) job 110 # Exception:

( DIAG ) job 110 1..1
( DIAG ) job 110 # Looks like you failed 1 test of 1.
In my setup script the following line was commented out:
# sed -i -e 's/db_namespace = public/db_namespace = xyz/' LedgerSMB/ledgersmb.confUncommenting it fixed everything. So it seems that:
- The tests no longer run in the public db namespace and this is a bug, or
- The tests require the db namespace to be xyz. In which case there should be a check in the code such that if the correct namespace is not available it should error out and report the need for the correct namespace.
