Test Description:
The BadMethodHandles test is a part of a Java project that is designed to validate the JVM's handling of invalid method handles. The test creates four classes with invalid method handles and attempts to invoke these methods.

Test Outcome:
The expected outcome of the **BadMethodHandles** test is an **IncompatibleClassChangeError** exception for each method invocation. This exception is expected because the methods contain invalid method handles. If the expected exceptions are thrown, the test is successful and passes. However, if any other exception is thrown, or if no exception is thrown at all, the test is considered unsuccessful and fails.
