Hi Vitaly,

I wanted to acknowledge your email and we will review your questions and get back to you soon.

Thanks,

Please note, I do not know the status of these results, whether they are actual for OpenJDK8 final release or not. Also, I paid attention to that most of the failures I am talking about are  not included into jdk/test/ProblemList.txt as for now.

My question is how can I get to know these causes in order to differentiate expected and unexpected failures - any of these tests, which were excluded from EAB runs because of one issue, may fail because of another.

So another question, how can I get the list of regression tests (if any) which expectedly fail for some particular OpenJDK release?
