Kurchi,

Can you append bug number 7197662 to @bug field in each test so that it is easy to check its history?

For your changes, I wonder why you choose to run these tests in othervm mode. Thanks!

Hi, The tests in java/util/prefs creates new nodes under the user's home directory. This causes the tests to start out with pre-existing preferences and sometimes leads to interference between the tests. This fix is to change the userRoot property for each of these tests so these tests create nodes only under the current directory.
