I probably won't get to this for a while, so if somebody else wants to do it feel free to reassign it to yourself.

> I occasionally get a failure like this on {{org.apache.hadoop.mapred.TestClusterMRNotification.testMR}}
> {code}
> junit.framework.AssertionFailedError: expected:<6> but was:<4>
> 	at junit.framework.Assert.fail(Assert.java:47)

> 	...

> It looks like a race condition:
> {code}
>     // run a job with FAILED status
>     System.out.println(UtilsForTests.runJobFail(this.createJobConf(), inDir,
>                                                 outDir).getID());
>     Thread.sleep(2000);
>     assertEquals(6, NotificationServlet.counter);
>     assertEquals(0, NotificationServlet.failureCounter);
> {code}
> Instead of sleeping for 2 seconds, we should keep checking the counter and fail after a timeout.  There's a couple of similar places in the test that should be fixed too.
