The pre-submit test failures occur because the new test, Padding.java, fails compilation by jtreg because Padding.java imports org.junit.jupiter. The latter is available in jtreg version 7.2, which I run on my test machines, but is not available in the version of jtreg used to run the pre-submit tests. The jtreg version used to run the pre-submit tests should be upgraded because otherwise backporting new tests will difficult/impossible without rewrites.
