Description
The test test/javax/swing/ButtonGroup/TestButtonGroupFocusTraversal.java fails in Java 8 because the focus moves to button 1 instead of button 2 which is selected.

The test is brought into 8 by backporting JDK-8249548.

The current focus behaviour with ButtonGroup is incorrect in 8u: the first button in the group always receives focus whereas the selected button should receive focus.
Comments
The test failure is resolved by JDK-8074883.
