-----------------------------------------


Testing SUREFIRE-705 reveals that this patch does not work well enough to stay in. Handling this issue must be done "differently".

>          Components: Maven Surefire Plugin, process forking
>    Affects Versions: 2.4.2

> When forkmode is always/prtest (probably that could be true for the last test and forkmode once) when one test hangs and timeout occurs, est suite execution stops and report file for the offending test not generated. That could mislead somebody to think all tests passed if all tests before the offending one passed.
> AFAICT that should be synchronized between one of these:
> 1. CommandLineUtils.executeCommandLine()
> 2. SurefireBooter.fork() 
> 3. SurefireBooter.run()
> 4. SurefirePlugin.execute()
> Probably fork must detect a timeout. Then the timeout be gracefully handled by generating a report file for the test. Then continue execution of remaining tests.
