Mini NetCAT for redesigned Profiler in NetBeans 8.1
Description
Due to the fact that profiling features in NetBeans IDE are used in other products and the support went through an user interface redesign recently it is important to have this core functionality tested as early as possible. That's why the former NetCAT 8.0 team was asked for help. This page contains all relevant information about this testing initiative.

Organization
The testing must not be too detailed as we need feedback within 1-2 weeks but by April 18th at the latest. Every volunteer was assigned to a certain team. Everyone should download the latest development build of the NetBeans IDE and then with the help of Profiler 8.1 Redesign FAQs test the profiling features according to the following assignment:
- Volunteers from Team A should use their own projects and with the redesigned NetBeans Profiler try to identify potential performance issues in these projects.
- Volunteers from Team B should use BrainTeaser sample project and with the redesigned NetBeans Profiler try to identify potential slowness and its cause.
- Volunteers from Team C should use MemoryLeakOrNot? sample project and with the redesigned NetBeans Profiler try to identify potential memory leaks in provided examples (some of them expose memory leaks, some of them not, but please let others discover that themselves).
Identified problems
Once every participant finishes her/his testing, s/he is required to summarize and record her/his findings into the following table:
| Priority | Issue | Short summary | Evaluation |
|---|---|---|---|
| P3 | #251599 | Profile button is not drawn correctly (shadow covers only half of it) |
