Sorry, I should have been more specific. The gtests have nothing to do with
the jtreg suite, they are a set of native tests using google test.

Just execute (from your build directory):
 ./hotspot/variant-server/libjvm/gtest/gtestLauncher -jdk:./images/jdk

There is also a way to execute them from the make, but I do not know how.
