It is perfectly fine. We do this in many tests. jtreg ensures that CWD is the working directory of the test.
it will thus be preserved along with the rest of the files jtreg preserves.
And saving as .png lets you look at it without more hassle.
OTOH I don't think it necessary to print the absolute path.
Often that's on a test system you don't get to see. Instead you just get to downlaod the results and the absolute path is not a good idea then.
