Re: [wildfly-dev] Keep getting directory not exists errors in build

We often need to test in non-ideal environments especially older machines with proprietary software and cloud. Transient failures tend to lose a lot of time especially when they happen to fail consistently in particular environment. Not only QE time but also dev time. Also test suite becomes hard to run by inexperienced with the particular test suite people, e.g. self-certification and certification services become a hard goal. That's why I think that, as stupid as it sounds, such a loop is better than dealing with this when least expected.

Does this class throw in your environment? If it works then perhaps the problem is an actual bug in test controller (it works for me on fedora 18). And if it fails then it must be a bug in the JVM.. at least the way I understand mkdir() javadoc.
