+1 to capturing this in an integration test.
You might be able to [use an existing
test](https://github.com/apache/accumulo/blob/1.7/test/src/test/java/org/apache/accumulo/test/functional/RestartIT.java)
as a starting point. There are test bindings which will make starting/stopping
services simple. The tricky point will be identifying a WAL for a tserver
before stopping it and then verifying that it does not get deleted after an
amount of time greater than the GC's period.
