FailingMethodFilter was created with a list of failed class-method tuples. When `shouldRun` is called the `FailingMethodFilter` would recurse down the description tree to find a leave (a test case). For each leave it uses the class of the description to find the set of failed methods for that class. Then it tests if the set of failed methods contain the method of the description. If so it returns true and the test should be rerun. When `shouldRun` is called the `MatchMethodDescriptions` will check for each failed-test-description if it can be found in the the tree of descriptions. This is done by delegating the recursive descent search to `Filter#matchMethodDescription`. `matchMethodDescription` recurses until it finds a leave, when found it compares descriptions. This should explain where the recursion has been removed.
