I think this class, `AccessibleBooleanRenderer` as well as 
`setCellToDoActionOn` method can have the default access. They're inside 
package-private class `BooleanRenderer`, I see no reason why these should have 
higher access level.

You can declare `main` to throw `Exception` or this specific list of exceptions 
and drop catch-block: jtreg catches all types of exceptions and it's a failure.
