[core] Enhancement: Configure working directory for execution

[glenviewjeff]

Thanks for the awesome free alternative to JunitMax, I love it!

I am using a tool called Robolectric for Android mock-like unit testing on a host PC. It has kind of a kludgy design where you create a separate test project, but need to specify in the Eclipse run configuration to execute the test project from the working directory of the main project.

The tests fail because there's no way to configure Infinitest to do this as far as I can tell. I couldn't find any JVM option to change the working directory (I presume that's up to the caller of the JVM, not the JVM itself.)

Incidentally, please consider hosting a forum, since that seems like a better place to post a request like this.

Thanks!
Jeff

I don't believe that's possible.
A workaround might be to pass parameters to infinitest and configure
something with it from within the tests. See more about infinitest.args
here: http://infinitest.github.com/user_guide.html

As proposed above a solution is to set the working dir in the infinitest.args file, for instance -Duser.dir=C:/tests
