My comment:
(a) Youtube does not have this test flight yet--the one in April. Asahi Shimbun does report on the test flight (titled ステルス機が再び試験飛行＝中国紙; Apr 19), based entirely on Global Times.
(b) The report states, "Earlier this month, citing a report by Japan's Asahi Shimbun newspaper, Phoenix Television said the J-18 had completed a test flight at a field base in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region."
The report cites

Just now I searched Asahi.com and the Web but failed to find the article in English or Japanese. So far, neither VOA nor BBC has reported on it, or J-20's taxi or test flight this month.
(c) Asahi website does contain

(According to 天府早報, J-20 taxied at an airstrip of 成都航空機工業集団 on Apr 12).
