So what exactly do the tests expect? Does the test calculates the 
expected splashscreen position and compares to the value of 
SplashScreen.getBounds()? Does the latter method returns an incorrect value?

What I see in JavaDoc is just: "The window is positioned at the center 
of the screen." It's unclear if the center of the screen should or 
should not include screen insets.

Thanks,

Artem
