Dave Beech commented on MRUNIT-98:
----------------------------------

My first plan was to try and simulate the cache without reading/writing any 
actual files, by mocking the calls to DistributedCache and backing it with data 
preloaded into memory by the test. Disk I/O in unit tests seems wrong, I always 
try and avoid it wherever possible! But, I'm probably just over-complicating 
things - Jim, your suggestion might be the way forward for a first stab at 
this. I'll try and put something together later and get it over to you guys to 
check out. 

Agree the symlinks thing would be a mess, and would also cause a problem for 
Windows users. It's annoying as that's the method I prefer using to get files 
from the cache myself.
