Hi, The java/util/prefs/AddNodeChangeListener.java test fails once in a while in the automated test system. Previous failures were traced to machine configuration errors, but that does not appear to be the case this time.
My efforts to reproduce this failure have been unsuccessful. The only useful infformation I've gleaned so far from the test failure logs is that the overall duration for running tier1 is longer than usual when the test failure happens. I would like to make the following updates to the test, in hopes of learning more if and when this test fails again: * fail faster, to report if it is addNode() or removeNode() that is failing * make multiple attempts to sleep+check the NodeChangeListener. (If the test fails after a single sleep, but passes after waiting longer, maybe we just need to sleep for longer to account for the occasional slower tier1 test run). * a few indentations fixes Thanks, -Brent ------------- Commit messages: - remove trailing spaces - update test: fail eariler, repeat sleep+check Changes: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/773/files Webrev: https://webrevs.openjdk.java.net/?repo=jdk&pr=773&range=00 Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8255031 Stats: 52 lines in 1 file changed: 33 ins; 3 del; 16 mod Patch: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/773.diff Fetch: git fetch https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk pull/773/head:pull/773 PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/773
