Otto Fowler commented on VFS-685:
---------------------------------

Understood.

 

I wrote a provider for zookeeper, original in project.  I was going to submit 
it but I'm going to release it outside the project.  In order to get a 
FILE_OR_FOLDER type to work with the test cases, I needed to create 
FileOrFolder versions of a couple of the standard test cases, those classes now 
in my project and not in the vfs package.  I cannot use these classes that 
extend the abstract test classes without FileInfo.

Outside provider writers should be able to both run the tests, and add new 
tests.

 

> Test classes should be public so test suits can be extended

> FileInfo and possibly other classes should be public, that way someone can 
> write tests for their providers that extend and are close to the same as the 
> project tests
