+ New test development:

[1] Different VM configuration parameters (GC type, etc) -- ensure graceful failure when G1 is not ensured, etc. Test all combinations that are incompatible with new feature.
[2] Can still use archive even when cache heap object regions cannot be mapped into Java heap.
[3] No crash after class redefinition (run several GC cycles)
[4] Ensure compatibility with shared classes loaded by custom class loaders => white box method to query ConstantPool::_resolved_references oop. This can also be sued to check that the array is populated corrected with archived strings.
   
+ Updates to test definition: any changes needed to the test definitions?

N.A.

+ Test execution: what kind of test execution is needed before pushing?
[1] Stress tests like WLS + AppCDS
[2] kitchensink + Bootstrap CDS
[3] All GC tests in bootstrap CDS mode
[4] Regular tier2~5
