It's no less trivial than the main thread that tests used to look for, except that previously once in a great while the thread woke up from sleep (and that usually resulted in a test failure because the stack trace could not be produced). However, I also have a PR [2720](https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/2720) to add a stack trace stress test. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/2700
