Tests do exist, but they are presently disabled. The end-to-end tests were part of JDK-8004729, which was pushed before the M6 deadline for tl. However, they fail on SPARC without JDK-8006005, which was pushed to hsx, but didn't make it over to tl in time for M6. Additionally, Peter Jensen is working with me to develop a more comprehensive test suite. And lastly, the spec for MethodParameters is not yet finalized. Therefore, the end-to-end tests are presently disabled. There are tests in javac as well, but they are being updated as part of the langtools patch.
