Actually I see there is already a build.log recorded by the test suite so I can just put a condition to check if any server failed to shutdown. This will not require a change in jboss-test. I think that is a better solution than bloating the stop task with file modifications. Extracting server names that failed to shutdown will be harder but if you think it's worth doing, I'll try. Should I go that way? And please advise which branches should I put that in - Branch_5_0 and trunk? View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4119076#...
