Interesting... On my end only 'sparkSWC' fails. The other tests all
pass as configured (i.e. with -ignore-problems set to cause the tests
not to fail on warnings). I've added @Ignore on 'sparkSWC' as I agree
all committed tests should either pass or be ignored.

What failures are you seeing on the 5 other tests that fail on your end?
