If it's confusing the tests are using -XX:+UseParallelGC we can change them to use some other neutral flag.

"Plus there is no any sense to run test twice in TC (with different GC, since it use only Parallel)"

I agree it's meaningless to run them with all possible GC combinations because these tests are GC neutral.

Hi Evgeniya,

As David has pointed out these jps tests are not testing gc. The -XX:+UseParallelGC is just an arbitrary chosen test flag. There should not be any conflicts either since these tests are running in driver mode:

...
 * @run driver TestJpsJar
...

which means no flags from above are accepted.

Thanks,
Katja

Hi David,

tag added because tests contain string
 cmd.addAll(JpsHelper.getVmArgs());

and JpsHelper defines
...
public static final String[] VM_ARGS = {"-Xmx512m", "-XX:+UseParallelGC"};
...
public static List<String> getVmArgs() throws IOException {
        if (testVmArgs == null) {
            testVmArgs = new ArrayList<>();
            testVmArgs.addAll(Arrays.asList(VM_ARGS));
testVmArgs.add("-XX:Flags=" + getVmFlagsFile().getAbsolutePath());
        }
        return testVmArgs;
    }

Tests itself wouldn't fail if we use another GC, tag added for cleanup-if we use for example SerialGC we must be sure that tests passed with this GC, not with another one. Now you will assume that concrete test passed with Serial GC, but it run only with Parallel GC. Plus there is no any sense to run test twice in TC (with different GC, since it use only Parallel)

Hi,

Please review changes for 8062536, the OpenJDK/jdk part of the JDK-8019361

bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8062536
fix: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~eistepan/8062536/webrev.00/

Problem: Some tests explicitly set GC and fail when another GC is set
outside

I don't see why you have done this for the

test/sun/tools/jps/TestJps*.java

tests. They don't set any GC flags.

Solution: Such tests marked with the jtreg tag "requires" to skip test
if there is a conflict

Just wondering: Does a skipped test get a .jtr file showing it was skipped; or does it only appear in the higher-level jtreg log?

Thanks,
David

Tested locally with different GC flags (-XX:+UseG1GC,
-XX:+UseParallelGC, -XX:+UseSerialGC, -XX:+UseConcMarkSweep and without
any GC flag). Tests are being excluded as expected. No tests failed
because of the conflict.

Thanks,
Evgeniya Stepanova
