  25 The test checks that after different type of GC unreachable objects behave as expected:
  26 
  27 1. Young GC - weakly referenced non-humongous objects are collected, other objects are not collected.
  28 
  29 2. Full GC - weakly referenced non-humongous and humongous objects are collected, softly referenced non-humongous and
  30              humongous objects are not collected.
  31 
  32 3. Full GC with memory pressure - weakly and softly referenced non-humongous and humongous objects are collected.
  33 
  34 The test gets gc type as a command line argument.
  35 Then the test allocates object graph in heap (currently testing scenarios are pre-generated and stored in
  36 TestcaseData.getPregeneratedTestcases()) with TestObjectGraphAfterGC::allocateObjectGraph.
  37 
  38 Since we are testing humongous objects we need pretty unusual nodes - arrays of Object.
  39 We need this since only large enough array could be Humongous object (in fact class with huge amount of fields is
  40 humongous too but it's for other tests).
  41 ObjectGraph class generates object graph with Object[] nodes. It also provides a way to collect
  42 information about each node using "visitor" pattern.
  43 
  44 Using visitors we build Set of ReferenceInfo instances which contains the following information:
  45 reference - external weak/soft reference to graph's node
  46 graphId and nodeId - graph's and node's ids - we need this for error handling
  47 softlyReachable - is node effectively referenced by external soft reference. It could be when external
  48 soft reference or when this node is reachable from node that exteranally referenced by soft reference
  49 effectiveHumongous - if node behaves effectively humongous.  It could be when node is humongous
  50 or when this node is reachable from humongous node.
  51 
  52 When we leave TestObjectGraphAfterGC::allocateObjectGraph we make graph reachable only with references from Set of
  53 ReferenceInfo instances.
  54 
  55 We run specified gc and check that each instance of ReferenceInfo set behaves as expected.
  56 Then we check that gc log file contains expected tokens and doesn't contain tokens that it should not contain.
