cygwin b20 bash path usage?

I made the mistake of creating and trying to use an exectable named
test.exe. under bash v2.02 in the cygwin beta 20 package. Nothing
happened when it executed. I suspect that bash was executing the program
test.exe in the cygwin-b20\bin directory rather my test.exe in the
directory I was using.
Is this proper behavior in bash? I assumed the directory being worked in
was searched first then along the PATH directory list.
