If it:
1. Works in all cases, i.e. doesn't use version specific constructs
for sudo (which I haven't seen thus far, but just to be safe).
2. Is properly reverted when the test is done (which includes the
following scenarios):
a. File already exists. Backup the old file, revert it when the
test is completed (regardless of whether or not the test passed or the
test failed properly [*]).
b. File doesn't exist. Nuke the file after the test is done.
... sure.
Thanks,

[*] SIGKILL or SIGSTOP can't be avoided, so technically it's a best effort.
