They also added a TimeProvider to help with testing time objects. Maybe one day we will also get an FileSystemProvider..

Until then you can use System.IO.Abstraction[1] if you aren't already :)

This is what I use, but damn, does it make coding a bit annoying having to have an instance of the filesystem rather than using static classes like Path.
