   How this path really looked like?
   `file.getParentFile().toPath()`
   What was the problem that you had to nomalize it?
   On Windows it is TMP.
   On Linux it is `target/surefire`. Was this path relative before?
   Maybe we should take a look in `AbstractSurefireMojo` where the path is originally created. It may simply happen that other parts of the code may also have this problem if the path is not canonical. I presume that the class `Classpath` using String instead of File or Path might have all the same problem. It would be worth to break the compatibility right here in a new major version.
