How to Run JavaFX in Headless mode for Testing

[Peter Pilgrim]

Hi All

How do we run JavaFX 8 / JavaFX 2 in headless mode for unit test?

Is there a secret GUI flag? e.g. java -Djava.awt.headless=true

Should we install a virtual X frame buffer?

Of course, JavaFX is bypassing AWT in its architecture; so none above,
I think, are guaranteed to work
