Then It might be better to drop it, or at least mark it as manual. The current issue with the test is that it modifies the system and JDK, which could affect other tests running in parallel.

For the JDK, we can create a copy of TESTJAVA and run the test there. However, we can’t do the same for the system. The situation could become worse if the tests are terminated midway, as the cleanup step wouldn’t be executed and the system could remain misconfigured.
