There are differences which are worth noting. Any system shouldn't be considered open if test cases are held in secret (even if they are just implementation test cases). Opening the entire language and runtime is considered the norm these days, not especially laudable.

Finally, the TCK tests aren't held in secret; they are licensed for free, but are just not open source (yet?). There are plenty of tests in OpenJDK, though: http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk/jdk/file/805584336738/test http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk/jdk/file/805584336738/test
