[Insight-developers] StimulateImageIOTest: Strange Test Failures

[Luis Ibanez]

More on this topic:

* Running the test manually in dash19 (by using the  ctest -R command) produces
   the same error that we see in the Dashboard

* Running the test by typing the command and using two local files as output
  works fine. (no errors produced)


It looks like the problem is somehow related to the path where the
files are written.

I added the filename to the Exception message that will be produced from:

File: C:\Dashboards\My Tests\Insight\Code\IO\itkStimulateImageIO.cxx
Line: 210

We will see a bit more about this message in tomorrow's dashboard.
