I've written unittests that create files to test code with. However, I never thought far enough to make it something generic that can be used elsewhere. :-) So I use actual filenames (not tmpfiles) so that later unittests can reference actual filenames to load different datasets into the program for testing. Not the nicest solution, since it will overwrite files in the working directory, but presumably only developers will bother running unittests anyway so this shouldn't be a problem.
