    @matthiasblaesing I agree. I believe @lkishalmi already talked about this 
[here](https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/5115#issuecomment-1363182797). 
Things like this can be a big time sink for reviewers since the first concern 
are regressions caused by the refactoring of old tests. The benefit of having 
nicer looking tests is minimal.
    
   The project has also no lack of tests, its more a lack of resources to run 
them all at once and also a test reliability problem of often failing tests in 
some areas.
    
   There are commented out tests here which probably need fixes otherwise they 
wouldn't be commented out in the first place:
    https://github.com/apache/netbeans/blob/master/.github/workflows/main.yml
    
   There are a whole bunch of tests which can't run on JDK 11 which need fixes 
(but this one is hard since the easy ones are probably already fixed):
    https://github.com/apache/netbeans/issues/4904
   
   So there is a lot of test related work available. Its just that refactoring 
already working tests isn't really solving anything right now.
   
   That being said, I know that you only want to help which is appreciated - 
believe me. Merging this now. @lbownik thanks!
