Amar Kamat commented on HADOOP-5636:
------------------------------------

Nigel,
Its not easy to write a test case for this. The situation is something like 
this :
# jobtracker schedules a setup task for a job
# user issues a job kill and the job is marked for cleanup
# cleanup returns and the job is marked killed
# setup returns at the same time and moves the job to running state

The only hard part is to make the tracker with the setup return at the same 
time. 

> Job is left in Running state after a killJob
