So it looks like 
ManagementFactoryHelper.getDiagnosticMXBean().getVMOption() works on the 
current VM? If so, I'd have to duplicate the option name and option 
value in two places - in  a "@run" comment and in the test verification 
code. Is this right?

      "@run main/othervm -XX:fisk=99"

    ...

    String expectedValue = "99";
    option = diagnostic.getVMOption("fisk");
    if (!expectedValue.equals(option.getValue())) {
         throw new RuntimeException("Wrong value for fisk. Expected " +
    expectedValue + " but got " + option.getValue());
    }

I must be missing something.
