This was an intermittent failure, and the fix was a simple null check. As such there is no regression test. It seems like it would be difficult to create one.

Why no regression test was not developed?

The following (non-confidential) comments are copied from the BugDB issue: ...where it is failing there is a WebView component that is created and not displayed. I will try to get a test case if required. I note that this appears to have been reported elsewhere: https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=251346 and https://community.oracle.com/thread/3691246 The second post notes this appears to have regresed since u31 and that possibly this just requires a simple null pointer check.
