I finally did it by using these 2 lines for setting and saving (to
build.xml) the failed test's description:
testResultAction.setDescription(failedTest, description);
testResultAction.owner.save();
Thank you very much for your initial help, Daniel! It certainly sent me in
the right general direction.
Hope this helps others having the same problem.
Thanks,
Eduard
