The groovysh tests failed last because the strategy to read package contents via the ClassLoader does not work with Java8. Possibly checking how the new Java REPL does things could reveal a solution, if they do have tab completion for imports. In the meantime, I'd suggest skipping those tests when testing with Java9. Not having completion for imports in groovysh with Java9 should probably not be critical.
