Tell me about it... :) And the only valid link I could find on google is
what John wrote while back. Most of the test that I run will fail
( in all the jvm I get , kissme, orp, jdk1.2 1.3, 1.4 ) That kind of give
me a bad feeling how solid the test base are ( not the test case )
e.g. gnu/testlet/SimpleTestHarness.java
Unless the test case is bad also ( I read a couple test cast, some
shouldn't fail in jdk, but it did )

ah...I think they started it and havn't put much in lately....
Is there anything better out-there that we can try? Or less
complex and closer to what we are doing? (in nature ) like a
vm checker ( debuger? ) and inner class tester ( AI type testing
I'm not sure reflection going to be inplace by then, but if we get
reflection done we can possible build a testing agent and look
over all the classes and then get a report from it. )
