@mhaessig Thanks for reviewing 😊 

The randomness depends on a seed, which is usually picked randomly, but can be fixed for reproducibility. That is why I always use `static final Random RANDOM = Utils.getRandomInstance();` from `jdk.test.lib.Utils`.
Then the test produces this in the output:

For random generator using seed: 3152575406766939100
To re-run test with same seed value please add "-Djdk.test.lib.random.seed=3152575406766939100" to command line.


I'll have a look at your comments now :)
