First thing in my mind is making sure your *failonerror* attribute is set *
true* on the *exec* task that runs the new test suite.  Second thing would
be to verify that a manual execution of that test suite returns a nonzero
exit code if there are test failures, which is what the *exec* would look
for to indicate the suite had failures.
