Geertjan Wielenga commented on NETBEANS-306:
--------------------------------------------
This applies to about 7000 files, adding license headers to these test unit
data files breaks the tests. For example, some tests assume particular
positions in a file, which would mean – with a license header added – that the
position would be wrong. Hence, as specified and allowed by Apache rules, we
are allowed to not have license headers here.
> Java source files as test data: need licensing or not?
