------------------------------------------

Weldon,

could you close this issue because the test has been already fixed with the HARMONY-2204 commit.

Thanks,
Elena

> The ThreadTest.testYield() fails approximately once per 10 runs. It fails mainly in the batch mode and usually passes when running separately.
> The attached test is an excerpt from ThreadTest but it is not an issue reproducer. On the contrary, it demonstrates fine threads alternating on DRLVM while it always fails on RI 1.5.0_08. 
> Nevertheless, I think ThreadTest is not quite correct. The spec says:
> (yield) Causes the currently executing thread object to temporarily pause and allow other threads to execute.
> The test should not expect that the two threads alternate. Any other thread can execute while some thread yields. And this happens most likely when a lot of threads are alive during the test run.
