Description

I have a shell script for this, mike has a python script, its annoying

I want to do something like this:

ant beast -Dtestcase=XXXX -Dtestmethod=YYYY -Diterations=100

I would be happy with a simple loop that just invokes 'test' somehow: getting a fresh new JVM to each iteration is desirable anyway (so you get fresh codecs, etc).

the -Dtests.iters is not really useful for this because it does not allow -Dtestmethod and it does not give a fresh jvm.

bonus points if it can use multiple jvms at the same time though
