Description Christian K. CLA 2011-09-22 07:20:40 EDT 
When tests are run directly in a test plug-in project directory this can result in  temporary files remaining there after test execution. This is inconvenient since the project directories are usually SVN working copies.

A workaround is to setup a launch config which launches the tests in a different directory, e.g. <plug-in directory>/working-dir. But this requires that launch configs will be maintained for all test executions.

As an alternative the TestFileAccessor shall support that working files will be created in a base directory that can be explicitly set, instead of the current working directory.
