             Summary: [C++] Spurious test failure when creating temporary dir
                 Key: ARROW-11320
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-11320
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: C++
            Reporter: Antoine Pitrou
            Assignee: Antoine Pitrou


When running the release verification script, I sometimes get this error:
{code}
[----------] 5 tests from TestInt8/TestSparseTensorRoundTrip/0, where TypeParam 
= arrow::Int8Type

It seems that in some fringe cases, the random generation of temporary 
directory names produces duplicates. Most likely this means the random 
generator is getting the same seed from different processes.
