Would it be possible for surefire to output the names of the tests that haven't completed yet when the fork times out, [~tibor17]?

>             Project: Maven Surefire
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 2.19.1
>            Reporter: Samarth Jain
>
> As part of our automated jenkins builds that run after every checkin, we have been seeing a lot of these failures:
> Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-failsafe-plugin:2.19.1:verify (ParallelStatsEnabledTest) on project phoenix-core: There was a timeout or other error in the fork
> Sample run:
> https://builds.apache.org/job/Phoenix-master/1420/console
> Unfortunately that bit of error information doesn't really help. It would be good to know why exactly the fork timed out or failed. What we do know is that some of the tests in the Junit category ParallelStatsDisabledTest failed to complete. However, failsafe incorrectly reports the failed category as the first category than ran. In this case it happened to be ParallelStatsEnabledTest. Also to note is the fact that failsafe kicks off next category run even before all the tests in the current category have finished. I am not sure if that is by design or a bug.
