Right, that'd be my expectation as well. Sounds like everything works.
I will change to look at your latest webrev.

> As for your question, the java.security file in OpenJDK9 still uses the provider class names instead of provider names. Are you talking about the java.security file in Jigsaw? Which build (OpenJDK or Jigsaw) have you tested against. I am pretty sure that I tested the 3rd party provider on classpath setting when I worked on the 7191662 changes.

Only the classes discovered by ServiceLoader can be identified using the provider name (which is different from the class name referred above). So, in your scenario, that would be "provider.TestJCEProvider" instead of "TEST".
