/**
 * The test for the implementation of an object of the type     <BR>
 * Event.                                                       <BR>
 *                                                              <BR>
 * The test checks that results of the method                   <BR>
 * <code>com.sun.jdi.Event.request()</code>                     <BR>
 * complies with its spec.                                      <BR>
 * <BR>
 * The test checks that for all Event objects,                  <BR>
 * except for ClassUnloadEvent, the method returns              <BR>
 * either the EventRequest that requested this event            <BR>
 * or null if event does not have a corresponding request.      <BR>
 * <BR>
 * The test has three phases and works as follows.              <BR>
 * <BR>
 * In first phase,                                                      <BR>
 * upon launching debuggee's VM which will be suspended,                <BR>
 * a debugger waits for the VMStartEvent within a predefined            <BR>
 * time interval. If no the VMStartEvent received, the test is FAILED.  <BR>
 * Upon getting the VMStartEvent, it saves its EventSet into            <BR>
 * a special array and makes the request for debuggee's                 <BR>
 * ClassPrepareEvent with SUSPEND_EVENT_THREAD, resumes the VM,         <BR>
 * and waits for the event within the predefined time interval.         <BR>
 * If no the ClassPrepareEvent received, the test is FAILED.            <BR>
 * Upon getting the ClassPrepareEvent,                                  <BR>
 * the debugger saves its EVENTSet into the array and                   <BR>
 * sets up the breakpoint with SUSPEND_EVENT_THREAD                     <BR>
 * within debuggee's special methodForCommunication().                  <BR>
 * <BR>
 * In second phase the debugger and the debuggee perform the following. <BR>
 * - The debugger creates ThreadStartRequest, ThreadDeathRequest, and   <BR>
 *   an extra VMDeathRequest, resumes the debuggee, and                 <BR>
 *   waits for corresponding ThreadStartEvent and ThreadDeathEvent.     <BR>
 * - The debuggee creates new thread,  named "thread2",                 <BR>
 *   whose running creates the above events.                            <BR>
 * - Upon getting the events, the debugger saves their sets in the array,<BR>
 *   resumes the debuggee and waits for the BreakpointEvent.            <BR>
 * - The debuggee creates a number of threads, one for each             <BR>
 *   following event: AccessWatchpoint, ModificationWatchpoint,         <BR>
 *   MethodEntry, MethodExit, Step, Exception, and Breakpoint,          <BR>
 *   and invokes the methodForCommunication to be suspended and         <BR>
 *   to inform the debugger with the event.                             <BR>
 * - Upon getting the BreakpointForCommunication, the debugger          <BR>
 *   gets ThreadReferences mirroring all tested threads in the debuggee,<BR>
 *   sets up Requests within them to get EventSETS to check up on,      <BR>
 *   resumes the debuggee, waits for events, and upon getting them,     <BR>
 *   saves its EventSets into the array.                                <BR>
 * <BR>
 * In third phase,at the end                                            <BR>
 * the debuggee changes the value of the "instruction"                  <BR>
 * to inform the debugger of checks finished, and ends.                 <BR>
 * The debugger waits for VMDeathEvents and VMDisconnectEvents, and     <BR>
 * upon getting them, saves their EventSets into the array.             <BR>
 * Finally, the debugger, using the array of EventSets,                 <BR>
 * compares Requests from Events to ones set up.                        <BR>
 * If any mismatch, the test FAILED.                                    <BR>
 * <BR>
 * Note. To inform each other of needed actions, the debugger and       <BR>
 *       and the debuggee use debuggee's variable "instruction".        <BR>
 * <BR>
