Michael Osipov commented on SUREFIRE-1302:
------------------------------------------

I think your problem can be solved in two steps:

1. Create an improvement request to make this timeout configurable. A PR with 
an IT would be awesome.
2. Rename this issue to "Surefire does not wait long enough for the forked VM 
and assues it to be dead" or something like that. 

This issue would require the new one to be solved, plus everything is nicely 
documented.

Acceptable?

> The forked VM terminated without properly saying goodbye. VM crash or 
> System.exit called?

>             Project: Maven Surefire
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Maven Surefire Plugin
>    Affects Versions: 2.19.1
>            Reporter: Yuriy Zaplavnov
>
> This issue happens because surefire kills the forked container if it times 
> out waiting for the 'ping'.
> In org.apache.maven.surefire.booter.ForkedBooter class there is hardcoded 
> constant PING_TIMEOUT_IN_SECONDS  = 20 which is used in the following method:
> {code}
> private static ScheduledFuture<?> listenToShutdownCommands( CommandReader 
> reader )
>     {
>         reader.addShutdownListener( createExitHandler( reader ) );
>         AtomicBoolean pingDone = new AtomicBoolean( true );
>         reader.addNoopListener( createPingHandler( pingDone ) );
>         return JVM_TERMINATOR.scheduleAtFixedRate( createPingJob( pingDone, 
> reader ),
>                                                    0,PING_TIMEOUT_IN_SECONDS, 
> SECONDS );
>     }
> {code}
> to create ScheduledFuture.
> In some of the cases the forked container might respond a bit later than it's 
> expected and surefire kills it
> {code}
> private static Runnable createPingJob( final AtomicBoolean pingDone, final 
> CommandReader reader  )
>     {
>         return new Runnable()
>         {
>             public void run()
>             {
>                 boolean hasPing = pingDone.getAndSet( false );
>                 if ( !hasPing )
>                 {
>                     exit( 1, KILL, reader, true );
>                 }
>             }
>         };
>     }
> {code}
> As long as we need to terminate it anyway, It would be really helpful if the 
> problem could be solved making the PING_TIMEOUT_IN_SECONDS  configurable with 
> the ability to specify the value from maven-surefire-plugin. 
> It would help to configure this timeout based on needs and factors of the 
> projects where surefire runs.
