Hi Lance,
The test library is a bit of a black box usually approached from the
angle of existing tests.
And unfortunately, there is a lower bar for documentation and API
development.
Perhaps an item to be looked at as part of the new developer guide project.
Thanks, Roger

Hi Roger,
Thank you for creating this as it looks good.
A couple of quick questions
- Will the javadoc be hosted somewhere
- Maybe I have not stumbled onto it yet, but is there a document/wiki
somewhere that describes all of the useful test libraries vs
discovering as you go?
Best
Lance

Please review[2] and comment on a new Hex printing utility to support
OpenJDK tests.
The usefulness of a hex printing has been discussed from time to time
with
many suggestions as to the API shape and features.
To get an idea of the API and features, take a look at the javadoc[1].
It covers the basic formatting of offset, and values, and extends the
descriptive part beyond simple ASCII or printable so that a custom
formatter
can interpret the byte stream in parallel to the bytes.
The webrev includes changes to existing tests that currently
use HexDumpEncoder to use HexPrinter.
Comments appreciated, Roger
