Description

An improved management of temporary files was introduced in SUREFIRE-2086, through which temporary files are all created under a surefire/ directory under the system's directory of temporary files.

The directory is created with credentials of the logged-on user and remains after a test run.
In the (rare) case that another user performs Surefire tests on the same Linux/Unix machine, before any reboot (upon which tmp/ is emptied), tests will fail due to permissions on the existing surefire/ directory.
