-------------------------------

             Summary: Enable test cases to be repeated by way of a JUnit Rule 
and custom annotation (e.g. @Repeat).
                 Key: GEODE-166
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-166
             Project: Geode
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: general
    Affects Versions: 1.0.0-incubating
         Environment: Apache Geode Test environments (e.g. Gradle, Maven and 
IDE).
            Reporter: John Blum
            Priority: Minor


Ideally, it would be nice to encapsulate the logic for repeating a test case in 
the _Apache Geode_ test suite using the test framework (i.e. JUnit) by way of a 
JUnit Rule and accompanying Java Annotation, like {{@Repeat}}.

For instance, a developer could annotate a test case method in a test class 
like so...

{code:java}
@Test
@Repeat(10)
public void someTestCase() {
  ...
}
{code}

Alternatively, a developer could specify the test run count using a System 
property that is settable from the command-line (using Gradle/Maven/Ant) or via 
his/her IDE, for instance...

{code:java}
@Test
@Repeat("test.runs")
public void someTestCase() {
  ...
}
{code}

Then...

{code}
$ gradlew test -Dsingle.test=MyTestClass *-Dtest.runs=10*
{code}

It is up to the developer to define different conventions and System properties 
used to enable a collection or specific grouping of tests to run multiple times.

The Java Annotation approach is more portable then build-based test repetition.
