[jira] [Comment Edited] (SUREFIRE-1379) When rerunning failed tests, I want to be able to set a delay between each attempt, so the whole test suite doesn't fail due to a connection problem to 3rd party services.

I still did not get any answer of what benefit the users have with the delay between normal and rerun mode.
Why this is the first feature request after a year when rerun was introduced.

> Some of my integration tests require access to 3rd party services that run in other machines, and sometimes those services stop responding due to network problems.
> I want to be able to  set a delay between each attempt to rerun a failed test, instead of rerunning everything in the same second, so tests that fail due to connection problems can have better chances of succeed.
> Waiting 5 seconds between attempts, in my case, is way cheaper than rerunning everything again.
