Within a few seconds, a new job should appear in the Actions tab in the GitHub web UI for your personal fork where you can view the progress.

Thanks for giving it a try! In the latest version of the submit.yml changes, there’s an additional file “make/conf/test-dependencies” [1] that you’ll need to add. Among other things it contains information of which version of jtreg to checkout (to avoid having to change the workflow file itself when JDK test dependencies change) so that should explain your failure (can be seen at [2]). So if you have time, please add this additional file as well to your duplicate branch and see if it works better!

Best regards,
Robin
