Description Andrey Loskutov CLA 2016-08-17 04:58:06 EDT 
I often have to investigate sporadic test failures, and usually on first attempt I have to rewrite tests to either use some JUnit4 constructs to repeat the test N times or to create a JUnit 3 testsuite containing same test multiple times. In all cases this means lot of temporary code which I don't want to commit anyway and wasted time for me to setup all this.

Ideally, the JUnit launch configurations would have a checkbox "[ ] Repeat test N times:" and a text filed next to it allowing users to specify how many times the test should be repeated. 

Additionally to that one could add "[ ] Stop execution on first failure" checkbox, which can be used not only for the proposed case but also in general.

WDYT?
