[EJ] revisit Jakarta TCK process regarding whether to allow tests to be updated in a service release
https://www.eclipse.org/lists/jakarta.ee-spec.committee/msg03244.html
TCK process does not allow updates to tests within a service release, for Concurrency an exception had to be granted, are there some changes that can be permitted?
Jakarta EE TCK Process 1.2 says …
“How Tests May be Added to a TCK
The only time tests may be added to a TCK are in a major or minor release. A service release which updates the exclude list MUST not have test additions or updates (see exception below for addressing newer Java SE versions).”
Some options to consider:
Alternate tests - Service release that include current test + alternate
Leave it up to the specification team to change the tests
PR to be created against the TCK Process to propose alternate language to the “How Tests May be Added to a TCK” section
