Not sure if this question has been asked before. But is it a general
rule that no data should be written to the testbase dir?
This test (javax/xml/jaxp/parsers/8022548/XOMParserTest.java) does a
transform that writes result to "test.src". From the bug report, it
gets an Access is denied error on Windows.
Is the fix replacing "test.src" with "test.classes" as Daniel suggested?
Right, tests shouldn't be writing to test.src. jtreg runs tests with a
working directory where you can create temporary files so you don't have
to specify a directory. The temporary file directory is another choice
although not always the best choice as you can fill that up easily and
also it's not easy to find the files after a test failure. Another
useful thing to know is that there are jtreg options to retain the files
in the working directory when a test fails.
