As noted in the contribution guide (https://openjdk.org/guide/#testing-the-jdk), regression tests are expected for a majority of changes that are done in the JDK. There are situations where regressions tests cannot be added, but this isn't one. I believe a new method with a default specified implementation in a public exported interface deserves a regression test of its own. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/21730#issuecomment-2810110015
