    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9853?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13735351#comment-13735351 ] 

Kihwal Lee commented on HADOOP-9853:
------------------------------------

I tried maven-surefire-plugin 2.14.1. With "-Dmaven.test.failure.ignore" set, it continues even after a timeout and build succeeds. The old version would stop regardless of the setting.  But the surefire report is still missing for the timed out test, so we could very easily overlook such failures.

It does print out the following error, though. 

{noformat}
[ERROR] There was a timeout or other error in the fork
{noformat}

If the test JVM crashes or System.exit() is called, the build still fails right away.

> Current version of maven-surefire-plugin fails when individual test times out causing test suite to stop. Newer plugin issues correct error message and allows test suite to continue until completion.
