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

As for 4.5 jobs I found out that JVM startup failure is due to job being executed on x86 architecture. As a result of workaround for Travis builds (RF-13996) I have increased heap sizes for surefire builds to a maximum of 2 GBs. Obviously with 32bit architecture any attempt to allocate such heap results in a VM failure.

I will try to use a {{sed}} command to comment these lines out before test execution; that way we could still use 32 bit machines for testing.

EDIT: another way would be to refactor {{<argLine>}} to use parameter (e.g. {{-DmaxHeap}} with some defualt value for Travis and change this value within Jenkins builds. Even though I can only see some failures in Showcase builds as those are the only ones making use of Windows machines (which in turn are the only ones using 32 bit architecture).

>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 4.5.5
>            Reporter: Matej Novotny

>             Fix For: 4.5.6

> We need to stabilize Jenkins jobs with Showcase & Tomcat 8. 
> As of now all builds with Tomcat fail due to artifact not being downloaded or JVM not initiated. We should investigate and fix this. 
> See [RF 4.5 job|https://jenkins.mw.lab.eng.bos.redhat.com/hudson/view/RichFaces/view/4.5/job/richfaces-4.5-showcase-ftest-mojarra-server-compatibility/] or [release job|https://jenkins.mw.lab.eng.bos.redhat.com/hudson/view/RichFaces/view/Release/job/richfaces-4.5-release-showcase-ftest-mojarra-server-compatibility/] for detailed causes.
> Last time I tried this locally, it was working so I believe this is a Jenkins misconfiguration.
