Keycloak logging disabled in 
testsuite/integration-arquillian/tests/base/src/test/resources/log4j.properties 
. AFAIK it's disabled just because running whole testsuite produces very 
big logs, which caused issues with travis.

I hope it's possible to fix that and have Keycloak logging enabled when 
running from IDE, but still keep it disabled when running from command 
line with "mvn" command. Will try to look into it. Created : 
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/KEYCLOAK-4520

Another possibility is to put private/public keys into your realm JSON. 
Then there is always same keys and same "kid" and application doesn't 
need to re-download it.

FYI. with my latest changes, there is no realm reimport for every test 
for most of the tests (see other thread I sent yesterday). But 
unfortunately this is not yet the case for Adapter tests (subclasses of 
AbstractAdapterTest)...
