The MacOS test runner is running on ARM64, so none of the SWT tests will be successful. See #1622.

The runner doesn't seem to register that new extensions were added and gets stuck in a busy loop. I've added a timeout so that the job will hopefully be able to finish.

Then runner seems to get stuck on MacOS quite a lot. And every time, it seems to be related to the creation of a JFrame. It wouldn't surprise me if this somehow triggers a popup or something that prevents the test from continuing...

As an alternative hypothesis, it might be a conflict between the SWT UI thread and the Swing event dispatcher. They are also competing on Linux, which frequently causes issues. But not to that extent.

Note that all tests using JFrame have been disabled, as they cause the
runner to get stuck on MacOS.
