Re: What are we testing ?

Some tests are dangerous, but assuming a functional VM will only be
slow and not completely devastating.  Is there any segregation of
these tests?

One example might be checking to see if an OutOfMemoryError is ever
thrown (and can be recovered from), but maybe that is more of a VM
test?
