Description Douglas Pollock CLA 2006-02-03 13:29:19 EST
When I run WorkbenchSessionTest, it unzips a prefab workspace into a random location in /tmp.  After the test completes, it does not clean-up.  This is nice because I can go and inspect the workspace after the test is run.  This is bad because I had no idea it was doing this until later.

It might be nice if the default behaviour were to call File.deleteOnExit, and then provide system property or a .option that would override that behaviour.  This way the developer needs to specifically request random files on disk, and hence knows they are there.

Like you said, I'm guessing...;-).

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
