Re: Write to disk in Platform based JUnit tests

FileUtil.getConfigRoot() returns a FileObject in a virtual file system, 
by creating a child of this virtual folder, you are never going to get a 
file/folder on disc.
I'm not quite sure, what you need to do to achieve that.
My guess would be to either remove the call to FileUtil.getConfigRoot() 
from the class that is tested, or get a partially initialized module 
environment.
You might want to have a look at the NbJUnit module and the 
NbModuleSuite class for that matter.
