user.dir points to the scratch directory that test uses, so it is where you
want to create the tests. Workspaces can sometimes be read only:
For example:
——————
@Test
public void test000() throws IOException {
System.out.println("test.dir = " +
System.getProperty("test.dir", "."));
System.out.println("user.dir = " +
System.getProperty("user.dir", "."));
System.out.println(
Paths.get(System.getProperty("test.dir", "."),
"basic.jar").toAbsolutePath()
);
}
-----------------
Results in:
--------------------
test.dir = .
user.dir =
/Users/ljanders/Documents/hg-workspaces/openjdk-jdk/jdk-zip-api/build/macosx-x64/JTwork/scratch
/Users/ljanders/Documents/hg-workspaces/openjdk-jdk/jdk-zip-api/build/macosx-x64/JTwork/scratch/./basic.jar
Please see http://openjdk.java.net/jtreg/tag-spec.html for the system
properties. I do not see test.dir there.
—————————
I would just do:
—————————
Path foo = Path.of("test.zip");
System.out.println("test.zip path=" + foo.toAbsolutePath());
--------------------------
which results in the output:
