   Thanks @KacerCZ and great work!
   
   > Perhaps the PR also need to be reviewed in the light of the ASF's resource 
limitation wrt GitHub Action Runners ?
   
   Yes, this is a major concern at the moment - this email on users @ infra 
(private, unfortunately) worth a read - 
https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/r748a0e034256f22c240d6a00cece0e005724a3173cfbb478b548d979%40%3Cusers.infra.apache.org%3E
   
   The short version is that ASF is already close to maxing out available 
runners at times, and NetBeans is already one of the top users (although not 
really that high in comparison to some).
   
   So, I'm saying -1 to merging this (not the implementation!) until 
conversations on dev@ and with infra and we can be assured we can do this 
without negative impact.

and not for every commit
   
   An annoyance I have with our GitHub Actions as opposed to the Travis CI 
config is that at the moment a failure in GitHub Actions needs all tasks to be 
re-run, whereas Travis allows for retriggering the failing test only.  (At 
least I've never found a way to retrigger part of a GH workflow?).  So, the 
tests on Travis that have a tendency to fail at random would definitely be good 
ones to move off PR testing.  Let's try and keep PR tests to the ones where 
going red is a sign of serious issue.  I'm certainly a fan of no merging until 
green!  But that can be a little awkward right now.
