+1 for retrying several times and sleeping between retries. testlibrary.Utils.waitForCondition() is a good candidate for such things.

We could repeat retrying until the test harness timeout, but add a sleep is 
definitively useful between retrying.

Hi Alexander,

This looks a bit dangerous to me - it could create a busy loop
if for some reason the connection can never go through.

I would suggest retrying only once (or retrying a fixed number
of times) - and possibly introducing a small delay (Thread.sleep)
before retrying.

Hi,

Could you, please, review this small, test-only, change:

CR: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8143121
Webrev: 
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~akulyakh/8143121/test/javax/management/remote/mandatory/loading/MethodResultTest.java.udiff.html

The precondition for this test is a JMXConnector having established a 
successful connection.
On some environments the test sometimes can not connect at the first attempt, 
because the target application is not yet ready.
We are changing the test so that it tries to connect again if it gets 
IOException during the connection.

Best regards,
Alexander
