           Summary: Add <funtest> task for functional testing
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.7Alpha (nightly)
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Optional Tasks
        AssignedTo: notifications@ant.apache.org
        ReportedBy: stevel@apache.org


I'm proposing a complete rewrite of the <functionaltest> task we use to
bootstrap smartfrog's testing. This task
 -has a condition to decide whether to run or not
 -has an action that it starts in parallel
 -blocks until another condition is run
 -runs a test suite (anything in a sequence)
 -does cleanup
 -does junit report generation (conditionally)
 -has lots of timeouts

This can all be done with skilled <parallel>, <sequential> and ant-contrib work,
but you dont get the right cleanup, or forward the central, critical exceptions up.
