Hi Vitaly,

A little bit of background, the purpose of the posting of EA build results is to provide consistent, reproducible results that people can generate and compare against in their own environment.

To this end, we do not run the awt, swing and 2d tests, as there are so many variables and the results
can be inconsistent.

Hello,

My question relates to failures of the Regression tests (jdk/test) on OpenJDK8 and how to identify whether a failure is expected or not.

Running java/awt and javax/swing tests against OpenJDK8 on various platforms I got some failures. Trying to find any explanations for these failures I looked through the JDK Bug System and could not find any bugs explaining them, for example, for the following two tests

As I mentioned above, we don't run these tests as part of the regular testing see NOTE 2
http://download.java.net/openjdk/testresults/9/testresults.html
2) ** Results do not includes test results for awt, swing and 2d.

I found out that these tests were excluded from runs against JDK 8 Update Releases Early Access Build (EAB) - see Test Results page at http://download.java.net/openjdk/testresults/8. Please note, I do not know the status of these results, whether they are actual for OpenJDK8 final release or not. Also, I paid attention to that most of the failures I am talking about are not included into jdk/test/ProblemList.txt as for now.

Supposing once these tests were excluded from runs, there were some causes for that e.g. some known product or test issues which were not intended to be fixed for this particular release. My question is how can I get to know these causes in order to differentiate expected and unexpected failures - any of these tests, which were excluded from EAB runs because of one issue, may fail because of another.

With the exception of awt, swing and 2d, the test results or any differences from one build to another are highlighted in the diff column.

I tried to follow the link at Summary column placed on the page http://download.java.net/openjdk/testresults/9 and could not get information about statuses of the tests (similar to OpenJDK8).

This link works for me, can you retry ?

So another question, how can I get the list of regression tests (if any) which expectedly fail for some particular OpenJDK release?

In the test results page - for example http://download.java.net/openjdk/testresults/9/testresults.html

The summary link provides a link to the tests that ran successfully. The diff column provides a link to the failures that are different to the previous build by component - jdk, hotspot & langtools

I hope that helps.

Rgds,Rory

Thanks,

Vitaly
