+When the applet starts, you'll see eight controls with black backgrounds.
+Four enabled (on the left side) and four disabled (on the right side)
+checkboxes and radiobuttons.
+
+1. If at least one of the controls' check marks is not visible:
+   the test fails.
+
+2. Uncheck the "Use Ocean Theme" check box. 
+   If now at least one of the controls' check marks is not visible:
+   the test fails.
