There's a small caveat here, as some CI systems put selftests in tmpfs, so
creating a file there won't really help.
I think there should be a skip if the test runs of tmpfs.

Reads to me like a random file containing data :)
Something like FILESYSTEM_DATA_COPY would better express the meaning.

Can we please move each state to a helper function?
