Mongorestore currently restores to "test" db instead of returning an error if mongorestore couldn't find db information from --db option, metadata file, or a directory name. For example:
mongorestore salaries.bson
or
mongorestore ../salaries.bson
This is not publicly documented and has caused some confusion among users.
