// File utilities for testing purposes.
//
// The ProjectRootPath() method is a convenient way of getting an absolute
// path to the project source tree root directory. Using this, it is easy to
// refer to test resource files in a portable way.
//
// Notice that even if Windows platforms use backslash as path delimiter, it is
// also supported to use slash, so there's no need for #ifdef checks in test
// code for setting up the paths to the resource files.
//
// Example use:
// Assume we have the following code being used in a test source file:
// const std::string kInputFile = webrtc::test::ProjectRootPath() +
//     "test/data/voice_engine/audio_long16.wav";
// // Use the kInputFile for the tests...
//
// Then here's some example outputs for different platforms:
// Linux:
// * Source tree located in /home/user/webrtc/trunk
// * Test project located in /home/user/webrtc/trunk/src/testproject
// * Test binary compiled as:
//   /home/user/webrtc/trunk/out/Debug/testproject_unittests
// Then ProjectRootPath() will return /home/user/webrtc/trunk/ no matter if
// the test binary is executed from standing in either of:
// /home/user/webrtc/trunk
// or
// /home/user/webrtc/trunk/out/Debug
// (or any other directory below the trunk for that matter).
//
// Windows:
// * Source tree located in C:\Users\user\webrtc\trunk
// * Test project located in C:\Users\user\webrtc\trunk\src\testproject
// * Test binary compiled as:
//   C:\Users\user\webrtc\trunk\src\testproject\Debug\testproject_unittests.exe
// Then ProjectRootPath() will return C:\Users\user\webrtc\trunk\ when the
// test binary is executed from inside Visual Studio.
// It will also return the same path if the test is executed from a command
// prompt standing in C:\Users\user\webrtc\trunk\src\testproject\Debug
//
// Mac:
// * Source tree located in /Users/user/webrtc/trunk
// * Test project located in /Users/user/webrtc/trunk/src/testproject
// * Test binary compiled as:
//   /Users/user/webrtc/trunk/xcodebuild/Debug/testproject_unittests
// Then ProjectRootPath() will return /Users/user/webrtc/trunk/ no matter if
// the test binary is executed from standing in either of:
// /Users/user/webrtc/trunk
// or
// /Users/user/webrtc/trunk/out/Debug
// (or any other directory below the trunk for that matter).

// The implementation is simple: it just looks for the file defined by
// kProjectRootFileName, starting in the current directory (the working
// directory) and then steps upward until it is found (or it is at the root of
// the file system).
// If the current working directory is above the project root dir, it will not
// be found.
//
// If symbolic links occur in the path they will be resolved and the actual
// directory will be returned.
//
// Returns the absolute path to the project root dir (usually the trunk dir)
// WITH a trailing path delimiter.
// If the project root is not found, the string specified by
// kCannotFindProjectRootDir is returned.

// and other test artifacts should be put. The output directory is always a
// directory named "out" at the top-level of the project, i.e. a subfolder to
// the path returned by ProjectRootPath().
//
// Details described for ProjectRootPath() apply here too.

// Returns the path WITH a trailing path delimiter. If the project root is not

// 1. [name]_[platform]_[architecture].[extension]
// 2. [name]_[platform].[extension]
// 3. [name]_[architecture].[extension]
// 4. [name].[extension]
// Where
// * platform is either of "win", "mac" or "linux".

//           hierarchy reflecting that path is assumed to be present.
//    extension - File extension, without the dot, i.e. "bmp" or "yuv".
