Test Runner fails to create a script in the active path when selecting a file as the active path

Oct 02, 2025

Steps to reproduce :
1. Create a new Project
2. Open the Test Runner (Window > General > Test Runner)
3. In the Project window, create a new folder in the “Assets” folder
4. Open the created folder
5. Press “Create a new Test Assembly Folder in the active path.” in the Test Runner window
6. Open the “Tests” folder
7. Select the “Tests.asmdef” file
8. Press “Create a new Test Script in the active path.” in the Test Runner window
9. Observe the console

Expected result: A test script is created in the same directory as the selected file
Actual result: A new test script is not created and an error is thrown “Invalid generated unique path '' (input path 'Assets/Scripts/Tests/Tests.asmdef/NewTestScript.cs')”

Reproducible with: 2023.1.0a1, 6000.0.59f1, 6000.2.7f1, 6000.3.0b4, 6000.4.0a1

A workaround to fix this issue in Unity 6000.0.28f1 is to change the method that is throwing the error for this one:

public void CreateScriptAssetFromTemplateFile(string defaultName, string templatePath)
{
defaultName = defaultName.Replace('\\', '/').Substring(0, defaultName.LastIndexOf('/')) + '/NewTestScript.cs';
ProjectWindowUtil.CreateScriptAssetFromTemplateFile(templatePath, defaultName);
}
}
