@sendaoYan  As a best practice, it would be useful to first understand why the test is not working before putting it on the ProblemList. Depending on the severity of the problem that is not always possible, but it should be the first step in an evaluation in my opinion. Minimally, the referenced issue should have an Assignee so that it is assured someone will look into it. Once an issue is on the ProblemList, it unfortunately doesn't address the underlying issue, and may not get the same attention if some evaluation had been done beforehand. Another suggestion is to ask about it on the OpenJDK security-dev alias, where there are Security Group members who have more experience with these tests and can decide what the best course of action is.

The infra tests are not part of any of our CI tiers, so generally there is more time to investigate and figure out what the issue is in tests like this before putting it on the Problem List. Often the certificate tests fail because of an issue on the CA side, which sometimes can be fixed quickly after contacting the CA.

In summary, please hold off on adding this test to the ProblemList until we have some time to evaluate the test failure. Thank you.
