<i18n dev> RFR(S): 8226869: Test java/util/Locale/LocaleProvidersRun.java should enable assertions (and reporting an issue that's unveiled by this)

[Langer, Christoph]

Hi,

Please, first of all, review a little test fix. Java level assertions should be enabled in test java/util/Locale/LocaleProvidersRun.java. It was (probably inadvertently) removed by refactoring the test with JDK-8210403 (Refactor java.util.Locale:i18n shell tests to plain java tests).

Resolving this bug will unveil a regression on Windows caused by JDK-8218960 (CONFIG level logging statements printed in CLDRCalendarDataProviderImpl.java even when default log Level is INFO) for which I just created a bug report: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8226876. I discovered this because I backported JDK-8218960 to JDK11u and encountered the assertion in the old test.

Since this test fix will open up a new test failure, I’m not sure whether it should be pushed to JDK13. If JDK-8226876 could be resolved quickly, the fix for this issue could be pushed after it. Or I add a temporary exclusion for Windows to the test list – however that would probably disable other important regression tests. Please advise.

That said, please assign JDK-8226876 to the right engineer - it’s not my area of expertise ��
