This is typical of "pass a string where an iterable is expected" errors
in Python:

    % python
>>> def f(x):
    ... for i in x:
    ... print(repr(i))
    ...
>>> f("string")
    's'
    't'
    'r'
    'i'
    'n'
    'g'
>>> f(["string"])
    'string'

The first call iterates the string, the second call iterates the
(anonymous) list.

This is line 648 which the traceback pointed you to. If you look at the
definition of run_and_verify_resolve() you'll see that the first formal
argument is EXPECTED_PATHS, plural; it should be passed an iterable
whose elements are ("local style") path strings.

In short: you're passing an improper first argument to
run_and_verify_resolve(). I'm guessing you want to pass
«[os.path.abspath(A_COPY_path)]» (again a one-element list).

Cheers,

Daniel
