RFR: 8030035 Create a stable test group in TEST.groups

[Balchandra Vaidya]

All,

I request to review a change for "8030035 - Create a stable
test group in TEST.groups"

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~bvaidya/8/8030035/webrev.01/
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8030035

_Background_: The test results [1] for JDK 8 ea build were
produced using a long list of test directories [2] as described
in the test execution instruction [3]. The above proposed
change is taking  advantage of jtreg group [4] feature to
specify collections of tests and, therefore, eliminates the
requirement of maintaining custom test directories [2] for
weekly test execution.

The above change simplify the jdk/test execution to:
        jtreg <jtreg/vm options> :jdk_stable



Thanks
Balchandra
