Yes, but then you would need to modify the test to rerun it with the same seed as the time it failed. If we had a utility that made this easy, then maybe, but I'd still be skeptical. I am not convinced that whatever benefit we might get is worth the effort or the unpredictability. ------------- PR Review Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jfx/pull/1228#discussion_r1313149894
