Description

Since we merged in the working branch of appveyor there have been very few stable builds. That lack of stability makes it look like all of our PRs are "red" when they really aren't as Travis is successful.

I've temporarily modified appveyor.yml to just do a mvn clean validate until it can be proven that the appveyor build is stable. There are currently several fail points that seem to recur, but I can't say for sure that these are all the errors:

1. ProfileTest

ProfileTest$Traversals>ProfileTest.g_V_sideEffectXThread_sleepX10XX_sideEffectXThread_sleepX5XX_profile:173 Duration should be at least the length of the sleep (59ms): 51

This timed test has always given some problems here and there, but i don't think we've seen it as a problem in months given the last set of tweaks performed to it. We could mark this test as "non-deterministic" and it would be ignored for the standard build......not sure if that's the right way to go.

2. Archetypes modules won't compile

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-archetype-plugin:2.4:integration-test (default) on project gremlin-archetype-tinkergraph: 
[ERROR] Archetype IT 'standard' failed: Cannot run additions goals. 
[ERROR] -> [Help 1] 
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-archety

3. Weirdness with GroupSideEffectStepV3D0Test:

[ERROR] /C:/projects/incubator-tinkerpop/gremlin-core/src/test/java/org/apache/tinkerpop/gremlin/process/traversal/step/sideEffect/GroupSideEffectStepV3D0Test.java:[37,8] class GroupSideEffectStepV3d0Test is public, should be declared in a file named GroupSideEffectStepV3d0Test.java
