    public void testPdfEditorAppendDoesNotCloseOutputFile()
        throws FileNotFoundException, Exception {
    final PdfFileEditor pdfEditor = new PdfFileEditor();
    final URL url1 = this.getClass().getResource("1.pdf");
    final URL url2 = this.getClass().getResource("2.pdf");

    final License license = new License();
    final InputStream is = this.getClass().getResourceAsStream("aspose.pdf.kit.lic");
    license.setLicense(is);

    final String outFileName = url2.getFile() + "_out";
    final boolean appended =
            pdfEditor.append(url1.getFile(), url2.getFile(), 1, 1, outFileName);
    assertTrue(appended);

    final boolean renamed =
            new File(outFileName).renameTo(new File(url2.getFile() + "_renamed"));

    assertTrue(renamed);
}

Fails on Windows 10.
