But I think your shell tests may have been just problematic when
multiple
instances of them are run on one machine, like a port number problem.
That's hard for me to diagnose quickly, so when tests failed with
any kind of BindException or 'address already in use', I just added
them to the list and moved on.
Most of the failed tests for me is in sun/security/tools, where
there's no port number problem. In these tests, I normally run keytool/
javac/jar/jarsigner multiple times, and generate keystore, java, jar
files. I assume all these are done inside a single directory.
Is it possible that these tests may run parallel? Then I may need to
use different file names for all of them.
Thanks
