      public class JUnitTask
      extends Task

  Runs JUnit tests.

  JUnit is a framework to create unit tests. It has been initially created by Erich Gamma and Kent Beck. JUnit can be found at http://www.junit.org.

  `JUnitTask` can run a single specific `JUnitTest` using the `test` element.

  For example, the following target

         <target name="test-int-chars" depends="jar-test">
             <echo message="testing international characters"/>
             <junit printsummary="no" haltonfailure="yes" fork="false">
                 <classpath refid="classpath"/>
                 <formatter type="plain" usefile="false" />
                 <test name="org.apache.ecs.InternationalCharTest" />
             </junit>
         </target>

  runs a single junit test (`org.apache.ecs.InternationalCharTest`) in the current VM using the path with id `classpath` as classpath and presents the results formatted using the standard `plain` formatter on the command line.

  This task can also run batches of tests. The `batchtest` element creates a `BatchTest` based on a fileset. This allows, for example, all classes found in directory to be run as testcases.

  For example,

       <target name="run-tests" depends="dump-info,compile-tests" if="junit.present">
         <junit printsummary="no" haltonfailure="yes" fork="${junit.fork}">
           <jvmarg value="-classic"/>
           <classpath refid="tests-classpath"/>
           <sysproperty key="build.tests" value="${build.tests}"/>
           <formatter type="brief" usefile="false" />
           <batchtest>
             <fileset dir="${tests.dir}">
               <include name="**/*Test*" />
             </fileset>
           </batchtest>
         </junit>
       </target>

  this target finds any classes with a `test` directory anywhere in their path (under the top `${tests.dir}`, of course) and creates `JUnitTest`'s for each one.

  Of course, `<junit>` and `<batch>` elements can be combined for more complex tests. For an example, see the ant `build.xml` target `run-tests` (the second example is an edited version).

  To spawn a new Java VM to prevent interferences between different testcases, you need to enable `fork`. A number of attributes and elements allow you to set up how this JVM runs.

  Since:
    Ant 1.2

      Possible values are "once", "perTest" and "perBatch". If set to "once", only a single Java VM will be forked for all tests, with "perTest" (the default) each test will run in a fresh Java VM and "perBatch" will run all tests from the same <batchtest> in the same Java VM.

      This attribute will be ignored if tests run in the same VM as Ant.

      Only tests with the same configuration of haltonerror, haltonfailure, errorproperty, failureproperty and filtertrace can share a forked Java VM, so even if you set the value to "once", Ant may need to fork multiple VMs.

        Ant 1.9.4

    - #### setPrintsummary

          public void setPrintsummary(JUnitTask.SummaryAttribute value)

      If true, print one-line statistics for each test, or "withOutAndErr" to also show standard output and error. Can take the values on, off, and withOutAndErr.
