Appy commented on HBASE-19803:
------------------------------
I think i have cracked it, it's basically this:
- Some test goes bad (which one? - basically what we were trying to figure out)
- After 900 sec (forkedProcessTimeoutInSeconds), surefire plugin issues
'shutdown' to *all* forked JVMs (that's what we see *.dump files), basically
killing every test running at that time.
** Side note: if findHangingTests.py reports X number of hanging tests, and we
have surefire forkcount as Y, then there should be *at least* ceiling[X/Y]
count of the following message in each *.dump file.

Killing self fork JVM. Received SHUTDOWN command from Maven shutdown hook.

With that figured, it was easy to find culprit tests.
Look for timestamp of "Killed self fork..." messages in dump file and find the
tests which started *exactly 900 sec before it* Any hanging test (as reported
by our script) with start timestamp between these two times was just caught in
cross fire.
Applying the method to #207 run
(https://builds.apache.org/job/HBase%20Nightly/job/master/207/) will reveal
these three culprit tests:
- security.token.TestTokenAuthentication
- master.balancer.TestStochasticLoadBalancer
- regionserver.TestRegionServerReportForDuty
> False positive for the HBASE-Find-Flaky-Tests job

> It reports two hangs for TestAsyncTableGetMultiThreaded, but I checked the
> surefire output
> https://builds.apache.org/job/HBASE-Flaky-Tests/24830/artifact/hbase-server/target/surefire-reports/org.apache.hadoop.hbase.client.TestAsyncTableGetMultiThreaded-output.txt
> This one was likely to be killed in the middle of the run within 20 seconds.

> This one was also killed within about 1 minutes.
> The test is declared as LargeTests so the time limit should be 10 minutes. It
> seems that the jvm may crash during the mvn test run and then we will kill
> all the running tests and then we may mark some of them as hang which leads
> to the false positive.
