There was some discussion of junit4 implications in the ant-user mail list,

Ah, thanks for the pointer, missed that before. Some things I can extract from that thread:

- ignored tests ought to be reported (currently they are just silently skipped)

- <junit> should support specifying categories of tests

Not really clear to me at this point whether the significant features of JUnit 4 can be accommodated comfortably inside <junit> or whether a separate task would be better. Making a separate task may however discourage migration. With the current patch you can at least put junit-4.0.jar on your classpath and migrate a couple of tests to it, without touching other tests and without touching your build script.

What does Ant's junit task [...] does badly
-installation. <junit> is the first time most people encounter ant lib setup grief.

I guess this was fixed by my other <junit> patch a couple days ago?

exceptions don't serialize

Throwable implements Serializable, BTW.
