Maybe. The intent of the test is fine, which is to ensure that a default method 
doesn't get added that breaks the invariants of the wrapper. One problem is 
that it tests only the default methods of `Collection` and not of the other 
collections interfaces. Another is that "override all default methods" isn't 
exactly the right criterion; instead, the criterion should be "override all 
default methods that would otherwise break this collection's invariants." It 
would be nice if such a test could be written, but as it stands I think that 
`Wrappers.java` test is too simplistic.
