--------------------------------

             Summary: ProcessExecutor might get stuck on Windows 
                 Key: ARQ-1600
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ARQ-1600
             Project: Arquillian
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
            Reporter: Karel Piwko
            Priority: Blocker


Current execution of external process on Windows might lead to following issues, causing process deadlock:

1/ Process stdin is not closed if no longer needed
2/ Process stdout and stderr never reach EOF

This behavior is observed when a .bat file file is executed on Windows. This behavior is caused by missing file descriptors to underlying process spawned by bat file.

Implementation note: There are two ways how to resolve the issue.

* read output stream and consider them finished if specific message is encountered
* unwrap bat execution and execute directly underlying command
