Description Lou Dasaro 2014-07-25 18:46:34 UTC 
JavaFX Test Cases that include the directions "Start IDE with fresh (empty) userdir" will fail, because as of NB IDE 8.0, one must ALSO delete the cachedir.

See Bug 241972

This ticket is to find all occurrences of the above phrase, and similar in 8.0 JavaFX test cases (in Synergy) to reflect the _current_ behavior, e.g. "Start IDE with fresh (empty) userdir AND cachedir".

Background:

The requirement to delete cachedir (in addition to userdir) represents an undocumented change from the behavior of NetBeans 7.x, including 7.4. Nine JavaFX test cases in Synergy are dependent on the previous behavior, i.e. "Start IDE with fresh (empty) userdir" since NetCAT 7.1 This is done to ensure that activation occurs properly in a variety of scenarios.

I retested the result of deleting userdir; in NB 7.4 and previous versions, the effect is that all of the plugins (except JUnit) are uninstalled. In contrast, NB 8.0 is DIFFERENT; the desired behavior is provided ONLY when both userdir AND cachedir are deleted.
