Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-4463:
-------------------------------------

And just to give a little more background, I mean the stuff we are dealing with 
is really crazy in some sense.

You don't see the normal jenkins servers emitting failures: what happened is we 
realized we weren't really testing XYZ
that we thought we were testing for months: I'm trying to help make up for lost 
time :(

So all these failures you have seen this week have been typically 
nasty-to-debug hard-to-reproduce long-tail failures
that would normally take a ton of time to show up: Its just been Mike debugging 
and fixing and me trying to figure
out more ways to provoke these failures in a more efficient way, like 
good-cop/bad-cop

                
> add support for running the same test method many times

> I have a shell script for this, mike has a python script, its annoying :)
> I want to do something like this:
> ant beast -Dtestcase=XXXX -Dtestmethod=YYYY -Diterations=100
> I would be happy with a simple loop that just invokes 'test' somehow: getting 
> a fresh new JVM to each iteration is desirable anyway (so you get fresh 
> codecs, etc). 
> the -Dtests.iters is not really useful for this because it does not allow 
> -Dtestmethod and it does not give a fresh jvm.
> bonus points if it can use multiple jvms at the same time though :)
