OK. Finally we have the proof in Jenkins. I've made some experiments with the maven surefire plugin and Jenkins and found no way to configure both to rely on the TestNG results. They record the test result independently, and this the builds are marked unstable even if the tests are retried and the TestNG results don't have those failed tests.
I'm closing the PR and will reopen (eventually) if I manage to find a way to influence the surefire plugin and Jenkins. --- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/jclouds/jclouds/pull/556#issuecomment-58260850
