The new tests added by JEP 425 for this thread dump format search the JSON text for strings but don't parse it completely.  These tests can be improved with a test class that parses the thread dump. The tests for JEP 428 like make use of the test infrastructure too.

If we use JSON schema then it will something like this, does that help?
