Nicholas Van SickleAtom test projects should include Gems\Atom\TestData in their Asset Processor "ScanFolder" list, like this: [ScanFolder AtomTestData] watch=@ENGINEROOT@/Gems/Atom/TestData recursive=1 order=1000 The reason we have a second "TestData" folder inside this one is to make it very clear that the corresponding assets in the cache are from the TestData folder. For example, the asset path at runtime will be like "testdata/objects/cube.azmodel" instead of "objects/cube.azmodel".
