Description

I was trying to understand why TestKDiag fails intermittently, and found some TestKDiag tests are supposed to fail when they actually succeed.

For example, testBasicLoginSkipped has the following error

2017-10-18 15:18:39,114 ERROR security.TestKDiag (TestKDiag.java:kdiagFailure(107)) - Expected an exception in category LOGIN, return code 0

According the javadoc of kdiagFailure:

Exec KDiag and expect a failure of a given category

So it looks like it should have failed, but it doesn't.
