[arquillian-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (ARQ-1994) Wrong root path in Testcase

[Aslak Knutsen (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ARQ-1994?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13119345#comment-13119345 ] 

Aslak Knutsen commented on ARQ-1994:
------------------------------------

This is not a bug. This is the effect of in-container testing. If you run in-container the test code is executed inside the server not inside your 'IDE'. 

You have 2 options;

1. You really wanted to run the test on the client side and only reach the deployment via external exported endpoints, e.g. http, then you can use @Deployment.testable=false.

2. Or you want to test in-container but require resources only available on the client side. Then add those resources to the Deployment and load them via the Classloader, not file system.

> After deploying a .war to JBoss Wildfly, I start a Testcase and want to read a XML-File from the filesystem (relative path -> <Project>/target/test-classes). As this didn't work, I checked the path: System.out.println(new File("test.txt").getAbsolutePath());
> The result was <WILDFLY-HOME/bin/test.txt which was really a big surprise! :-) 
> I am not absolutely sure if this is a bug, but it hampers testing a lot in some cases and it should at least be better documented. (I couldn't find information about this behavior so far.)
