> Unit Testing Framework fails to initialize properly on Windows OS
> -----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DS-1198
> URL: https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-1198
> Project: DSpace
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 3.0
> Environment: Windows OS
> Reporter: Tim Donohue
> Assignee: Tim Donohue
> Fix For: 3.0
>
>
> With recent changes to the Unit Testing Framework (added after 1.8.x
> releases), the AbstractUnitTest class fails to initialize the testing
> environment on Windows OS.
> The reason that the testing environment fails to initialize properly is
> because of the difference in file path separators (i.e. Windows uses
> backslashes as path separators, which we all know cause issues in Java
> Strings if not escaped properly).
> This problem comes into play in the dspace-api & dspace-stats POMs, as they
> both use the ${project.build.directory} maven property to initialize the
> "dspace.dir" in dspace.cfg, etc. On Windows, unfortunately the
> ${project.build.directory} has backslashes as path separators, which causes
> issues in initializing the DSpace test environment.
> The end result is that you end up with FileNoteFoundExceptions when the test
> environment attempts to load anything in the "config" directory.
> Although this isn't a major issue, it's obviously a problem for folks
> developing on Windows who want to also perform Unit Testing. Currently it's
> not possible to run any unit tests on Windows.
> I've found a way to fix this issue in the Maven POMs & will submit a pull
> request for review shortly.
