Did you tryied something like:

<xsl:variable name="CategoryPath">MyTest/Request/@category</xsl:variable>

Let me explain... What the select statement does is to apply the path, so the result is the actual thing in the path, not the path itself. So to store the path itself, it's necessary to open the variable and store plain text in it, which would actually be the path.Note I haven't tryed this myself, so I have no idea if it would work. If it doesn't, try using

<xsl:param name="CategoryPath">MyTest/Request/@category</xsl:param>

Or maybe calling the variable/parameter with something like this:

<xsl:if test="{string($CategoryPath)}[.='All']">
