I'm now done with the initial goals that I had in mind for this
task. I've opened a PR[1] for review. I've included a manual for this
task and it can be currently found here[2]. I would suggest reading
the manual first, before reviewing the PR, since the manual will give
an overall idea of what's being attempted with this task.
It may be a while until I manage to look at it - in particular since I
need to "read the manual first" :-)
Please take your time. Although I am happy with the way this task has shaped up, the one area I would like to have your feedback is the sysout/syserr handling implementation in that PR. The intention is to try and avoid potential OOMs and other such issues, that have been noted in our bug tracker, but at the same time I don't want to end up having an overly complicated logic or something that could have been done better in a different way.

Whether we want to include
the new task with an upcoming release depends on how comfortable you
feel with it from my point of view. It probably won't see much use
unless we include it in a release.


Given the changes, I am confident that it won't break existing tasks or anything else in Ant. I also believe that this new task will help people get started with using JUnit 5 with Ant to an extent that they can get the tests run (both JUnit 4 and 5) with basic reporting features and the ability to use the junitreport for the generated XML reports. So I think it's in a good enough state to start off with. I do plan to try this task as a "user" myself this weekend, outside of our testsuite and see if there are any issues or anything basic missing.
