[classlib][test] Test input/output files location
I am going to fix some commented tests from java.awt.geom package. I
have several organizational questions before start to do.
1. Where is the best place to put test resource files (golden files)?
Testing conventions [1] keep silence about this. There are many such
files located near the tests, for example
modules\awt\src\test\api\java\common\java\awt\geom\shapes\*
modules\awt\src\test\api\java\common\java\awt\shapes\*
2. Where is the best place to put test output files? Now it is
modules\awt\bin\test\java\awt\shapes\output
modules\awt\bin\test\java\awt\geom\shapes\output

As someone else said, these should be in the parallel resources tree.
At build time, they should be copied to modules\awt\bin\test so that
they can be located at run time using the classpath. (This will allow
them to be packaged as a jar of tests.)

A temp directory - preferably not $HOME as some tests seem to at the
moment.

Mark.

I think that File.createTempFile and File.deleteOnExit are good here.

I cannot find it in the archive, but IIRC, this topic was discussed
before, and the conclusion was they should be in the
modules\awt\src\test\resources\<package structure>

If they are used temporarily, they should be removed after the test
execution, so IMHO the position is not so significant, but maybe the
user temp directory is good place to go.
