How do I do that Java 101 task again?...

I find that every new Java project I'm on, I run into a situation where I want to translate an InputStream to a String or vice versa. This is frequently in a unit test where I've read an input file or expected output file in using getClass().getResourceAsStream() and need to convert to Strings for use in my test.

It's a simple boiler plate task, yet darned if I can remember the most an effecient way to do it every time. I always re-google and always tend to refer to this one to jog my memory..

Thought I'd link out to it this time.

I've used that same example myself. They've also got an example going the reverse direction:
