[Bug]: Load of Unittest does not work if unit test base path is edited

Apache Hop version?

Java version?

17.0.15

Operating system

Windows

What happened?

I have created a new project with the edited unit test base path value "${PROJECT_HOME}/unittests" and the folder exists.

Then I now create a new pipeline with unittest, save, close and reopen the pipeline the dropdown for unittests is empty. Even through the unittest is shown in the metadata.

If a change back the unit test base path to "${PROJECT_HOME}", the same process works

Additional: The selection of the Base test path in the unittest window per "browse"-Button does not work

I opened an issue report for this some time ago #6112, to use it for now, I recommend removing the /unittests folder and leaving it empty so that it will pull the pipeline relatively from ./

[CarlosJuncher03]

It appears that the relative path is not being validated. Basically, it's pulling the entire path and causing an error.

Is this still an issue in 2.18.0-SNAPSHOT (main)?
