Hi Mirko,

interesting idea. You are solving the wrong problem, as you already know.
But I can understand your rational.
Some other ideas that might work towards your "real" problem.
Did you check out tools like Infinitest or JUnit Max? They "force" test
execution, by doing it all the time in the background.
Another idea might be to use an integration server on the developer
machine. This works fine with git. You can monitor the local git repro for
changes and execute a build, before it's pushed.
Or use an integration server, that does seperate runs for every commit by
every developer. I think TeamCity can do something like this.
And then you should probably turn your focus to improving your test
situation soon, instead of building your tool to perfection.

Greetings,
   Malte
