Cannot run bat file in java [duplicate]

Question

I tried to run a bat file in Java using the following code.

Runtime.getRuntime().exec("run.bat", null, new File("C:\\test\\"));

I got the following error.

java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "run.bat" (in directory "C:\test"): CreateProcess error=2, The system cannot find the file specified

My file is exist in the location that I've declared. How to fix this?
