java/util/zip/DeflateIn_InflateOut.skipBytes verifies functionality of DeflaterInputStream.skipBytes. While testing skipping of bytes, test uses different input data with same data length, and compares the compressed sizes of these data to verify skipping bytes. As per zlib specification which is what is used by Deflater in java, length of compressed data is highly dependable on input data contents, so it will be incorrect to assume that compression ratio would be constant for same length input data. For more details please see explaination in eclipse-openj9/openj9#14948 (comment).
