Tibor Digana commented on SUREFIRE-870:
---------------------------------------
It will be fixed in 2.19.1. It will require you to use some system property.
The thing is that surefire cannot wait infinitely for the sub-process to
die. Since we don't know how long your code is going to prolong the
shutdown hook life time we employ the timeout and you will be able to
modify the timeout.
> "Error occurred in starting fork" shouldn't be reported for all forks with
> non-zero exit codes

> If a forked test has a non-zero exit code for any reason, it's reported by
> Surefire as "Error occurred in starting fork". It's distinctly possible for a
> forked test to have a non-zero exit code for reasons other than problems
> starting the fork - i.e., a bad test that as a System.exit(1) in it, etc. The
> error should either be more general, or more specific tracing of the problem
> should be done.
