    The response is a bit more complex than that. Class#getResourceAsStream allows you to access files on the Java classpath, i.e. embedded inside the JARs. Your test.xlsx should be packaged in the same JAR as your TestThingShape, side-by-side with TestThingShape.class file. The JAR is then zipped together with metadata.xml to produce the extension bundle.
