Well a bunch of stuff will not work on a full /tmp. Sorry, hard to
elicit empathy with a full /tmp :o). -- Andrei

So you are OK with your unit tests failing randomly with no clear
diagnostics?

I'm OK with my unit tests failing on a machine with a full /tmp. The
machine needs fixing. -- Andrei

It got full because of tests (surprise!). Your actions?

It would be nice to have a uniform mechanism to get a unique
system-dependent file location for each specific unit test.

The file should automatically delete itself at the end of the test.

Looks like /tmp (%TEMP% or C:\TEMP in Windows) in conjunction with the likes of mkstemp is what you're looking for :o).
