Looks like a useful improvement. +1

> Components: Test

> At times it would be very helpful to be able to specify a set of properties
> to pass on to the JUnit tests when invoking the JUnit tasks in build.xml.
> Examples are specifying a non-default port to use, to shorten down the
> run-time of the stress-test,or to specify the location of old release jars
> (this is already handled explicitly).
> There are several alternatives on how to do this - see
> http://ant.apache.org/manual/Types/propertyset.html for details.
> I suggest we try out the simplest approach first: pass on any system
> properties set on the command line. It should be very simple to implement.
> The downside is that a property you specify for the higher-level build script
> may interfer or be in conflict with the running of the tests.
