Description Jiri Skrivanek 2013-05-28 13:43:59 UTC

Automated test discovered writes to disk during startup. To reproduce:

- open java.kit project in IDE
- open IDECommitValidationTest from Functional Test Packages
- run this test (Ctrl+F6). The first test case testWriteAccess should pass. But there are error messages like the following:

Writing any files to disk during start is inefficient and usualy unnecessary.
Consider using declarative registration in your layer.xml file, or delaying
the initialization of the whole subsystem till it is really used.
In case it is necessary to perform the write, you can modify the
'allowed-file-write.txt' file in ide.kit module. More details at

Stack traces from test.

Comment 2 Milutin Kristofic 2013-05-28 14:15:45 UTC

How often are you running this test? It is regression to which version?

Comment 3 Jiri Skrivanek 2013-05-28 14:23:36 UTC

This test runs every day. Now testWriteAccess fails 54 times in row. I can't specify build number when it started to fail. At least it is a regression to 7.3.1.

After reading https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=230385#c1

I run the test and I haven't seen exception.
