These tests use AWT classes, which are not accessible in headless mode. We need to investigate how to workaround this issue.

Technically this is not a bug, it's really just a request to see if these tests could be changed to pass when headless. There are a lot of beans tests and almost all can run when headless, it's just this tiny few that can't.
