I think application testing was discussed several months ago. A list of
candidate apps was posted here, and I picked one and began running its
test case.
Unfortunately I never finished.
Jacl has a comprehensive test suite that covers a lot of
java.lang.reflect. I haven't yet identified all the libgcj bugs that
cause it to crash. Nor have I had much time to spend... it should be in
GNATS, I know.
Eventually it'll be a nice regression test, probably for 3.1, as it will
not work on 3.0.1 (though it does compile with 3.0).
