[jira] [Comment Edited] (SUREFIRE-1984) To be able to kill a fork as soon as a test case fails and start a new fork from the failed testcase, following which subsequent testcases are run.

This is a very good idea, we spoke about it with Professor Jonathan Bell and Wing Lam but unfortunately it is too complicated to focus the energy on it today.
You can talk to these people about it and may tell you more about it from the perspective of studies they have done so far and feasibility. Maybe they would find a team who may help...

> I need this feature because some testcases need isolated environment to run. I have seen that certain testcases fail on an existing fork but seem to run fine on a new fork. I want to be able to keep the number of active forks same at all times. Just that kill the fork that executes a failed testcase and retry on a newly generated fork.
