I would rather just remove the test entirely, because this new test is going to be another person's future work. It's also more of a change tracker than a unit test, as a style is not a meaningful unit of code. If we want to start testing stylesheets, we should first have a discussion on goals and methodology.

I agree with @mstr2 and @Maran23 that this test should not be in any existing test class. It isn't testing the CSS engine or any particular aspect of stylesheets in general. Rather it is testing an aspect of the `modena.css` stylesheet in particular. I recommend creating a new test class, perhaps under `test.com.sun.javafx.scene.control.skin.modena`.
