JMeter test duration
I have a number of JMeter tests set to run with different numbers of users.
Once one test finishes, another should start. I am running into a problem
where the ant task calling the JMeter test gets stuck waiting for the test
to finish. Is there some setting in ant or in JMeter where I can specify
the absolute time limit for the test to run and have it forcibly shut down
if it hits that limit? I am using the Duration setting in the main thread
group to control how long the test should run, but I am running into cases
where it gets ignored.

A few days ago I posted information here on an open source script wrapper around JMeter called testtract ( http://testtract.sourceforge.net ) that runs JMeter and digests it's logs into command line results
Anyway, it implements a watchdog timer. For example:
# Run test with a 3 minute (180 second) "kill timer"
metatest -t a.jmx -s Dev -k 180

I doubt that it is ignored, however the duration timer performs an
orderly shutdown, which means that a thread only shuts down when it
finishes its current sample.
Check the log for details.
You could try running a concurrent separate thread group with a Test
Action [1] set to Stop Now / All threads
Add a Constant Timer child for the required delay.

Try using Stepping Thread Group or Ultimate thread Group - they operate with
time-limited test schedule.
