Hi all,

During #TestFest in London last month we hacked away on jtreg and tests in the OpenJDK. Myself and another participant managed to change two unit tests. I haven't looked for a sponsor in the past so I'm fairly new to the process, hence my email on the list is to request for someone to review, and process these patches further. I'm a committer (signed OCA).

Here's details of the changes made to the tests under the ../jdk8_tl/jdkfolders:

  1. test/java/lang/ref/Basic.java.patch - changed to not use Thread.sleep() any more rather use the java.util.concurrent.CountdownLatch functionality
  2. test/java/lang/Runtime/exec/LotsOfOutput.java.patch - refactor-ing and tidy-ing of existing code (removing string literals and replacing with constants, etc...)

Please let me know what you would like me to do next with these patches.

Regards, mani
