+ * DESCRIPTION
+ *     This test performs checking for
+ *         command set: Method
+ *         command: VariableTable
+ *     Test checks that debugee accept the command packet and
+ *     replies with correct reply packet.
+ *     Also test checks that names and signatures of returned
+ *     arguments and local variables are equal to expected ones.
+ *     Test consists of two compoments:
+ *         debugger: vartable001
+ *         debuggee: vartable001a
+ *     First, debugger uses nsk.share support classes to launch debuggee
+ *     and obtain Transport object, that represents JDWP transport channel.
+ *     Also communication channel (IOPipe) is established between
+ *     debugger and debuggee to exchange with synchronization signals.
+ *     Next, debugger obtains classID and methodID for the tested class
+ *     and method from debuggee.
+ *     Then, debugger creates command packet for Method.VariableTable command
+ *     with the found classID and methodID as arguments, writes packet to
+ *     the transport channel, and waits for a reply packet.
+ *     When reply packet is received, debugger parses the packet structure
+ *     and extracts attributes of all arguments and variables. Also test
+ *     checks that extracted attributes have expected values.
+ *     Finally, debugger sends debuggee signal to quit, waits for it exits
+ *     and exits too with the proper exit code.
