JavaStar Command Reference: JavaStar directories


JavaStar references several directories while running:

Directory Description
Work directory This is where JavaStar stores (by default):
  • The scriptname.java and scriptname.class files for scripts you create
  • A scriptname.gold subdirectory, where JavaStar keeps any gold files (master comparison files) you generate The ST directory, a SunTest proprietary directory
  • Results directory This is where JavaStar creates:
  • The log file for script results
  • A fail subdirectory, where JavaStar keeps the failed comparison files from the most recent playback
  • JST Path This is a series of directory paths you define to tell JavaStar where to look for JST components.

    The work directory and results directory both default to the directory where you launch JavaStar. The JST path is set to the work directory by default.

    You can permanently override these defaults by setting your Setting Test Options. JavaStar also allows you to override these directory settings for specific processes.

    Note - JavaStar requires the ST directory to perform its functions, but after you exit JavaStar or finish any JavaStar tasks you run from the command line, you can delete this directory.
