I’m testing a number of classes which manipulate files on disc. I created a number of “mocked” files which I will pass to these classes. The question is where in my directory tree I should save them? I’m using Maven.

It sounds like they should be in
src/main/resources, if you need them at runtime, orsrc/test/resourcesif they’re merely inputs to tests.This is assuming that they’re otherwise opaque data files with no special properties that Maven can do anything interesting with (for example, XSD schemas/SQL/scripting language files).
