Did any of these tests find a bug with any version of your code? If not, I don't think they pull their weight. > 2. void -> byte -> Object and void -> char -> Object box to null (test passes > with 8141678 applied); bug or intended? That would be a bug, but the test does not perform those changes. It goes void -> Character (null) -> Object (null).
