Re: virtual machine tests

I've been doing some surgery on the VM parts of libgcj, and it occurs

think it is time to set one up.

My current plan is to make a new Mauve module called "vm", and put
tests there.  Of the many test frameworks we have at the moment, I
find jacks is the easiest to work with (and most appropriate for this
kind of testing), so I think I will just copy that framework and use
it.  Eventually I'd like to move the verifier tests here as well.

It will be a little while before I set this up for real.  Send email
if you have an objection or comment.

Sounds cool. I guess we could mirror the JVMS hierarchy in the tests like jacks does for JLS.


All I've found last time around when I looked for VM tests was the tests in Jcon [1].
