The automated test follows the instructions of the manual test that was added in #10485.
Instead of selecting the parent folder from the **Look in** combo box, it calls `setCurrentDirectory` directly with the parent of the path which is not traversable. Thus, the current directory of the file chooser is set to `null`. As the second step, the test finds the combo box and re-selects the currently selected element. Without the fix for [JDK-6616245](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-6616245), `NullPointerException` is thrown and the test fails; with the fix applied, the original folder is selected and the test passes. @mrserb and @TejeshR13, please, take a look. ------------- Commit messages: - 8295298: Automate javax/swing/JFileChooser/FileViewNPETest.java Changes: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/10801/files Webrev: https://webrevs.openjdk.org/?repo=jdk&pr=10801&range=00 Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8295298 Stats: 99 lines in 1 file changed: 53 ins; 23 del; 23 mod Patch: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/10801.diff Fetch: git fetch https://git.openjdk.org/jdk pull/10801/head:pull/10801 PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/10801
