## Sandbox

Create and manage temporary folders to simplify integration testing

### Usage

Add sandbox as a dependency (you probably only want it for tests).  Maven dependency info:

```xml

    

        net.avh4.util

        sandbox

        0.0.6

        test

    

```

Any code that wants to play in the sandbox should have a root path that can be injected:

```java

    public class MyService {

        private final File root;

        

        public MyService(File root) {

            this.root = root;

        }

        

        public void doSomething() {

            File configFile = new File(root, "config.xml");

            File fileToWrite = new File(root, "output.txt");

            ...

        }

    }

```

Create a sandbox and populate it with some files.  This example copies `test-config.xml` from the classpath

into `config.xml` in the sandbox.

```java

    Sandbox sandbox = new Sandbox();

    sandbox.useResource("test-config.xml", "config.xml");

```

Test your code in the sandbox.

```java

    MyService service = new MyService(sandbox.getRoot());

    assert(sandbox.newFile("output.txt").exists() == true);

```
