I altered the test 'FileSystemConnectorTest' in activiti-cycle. The previous code (line 28):userConfiguration.addRepositoryConnectorConfiguration(new FileSystemConnectorConfiguration("filesystem", File.listRoots()[0]));When running on a windows-box with a floppy-drive in it, the first root FS is 'A://'. If no floppy is in the drive, the '.children()' result is null and a nullpointer is thrown, since the dir doesn't exist and the test fails. When I inserted a floppy-disk it, the test actually ran fine
I repaced it with a more platform/environment friendly alternative, that used the current path:userConfiguration.addRepositoryConnectorConfiguration(new FileSystemConnectorConfiguration("filesystem", new File(".")));
