Null pointer exception when importing xml containing only passing test cases

XMLWordPrintable

      Importing xUnit XML for a suite of test cases which does not contain a failure results in a Null pointer exception.
      Using xml generated from the python unittest framework for a suite with two passing test cases, we encountered a Null pointer exception:

      [ZapiTestResultReporter] [INFO] Examining test results...

      Looking through the source code, we noticed in TestCaseUtil.java#L331, that response is closed when passList.size > 0. However, response becomes non null only if the failList.size > 0 in line 326. Line 331 should check to see if response != null before attempting to close and continue if it is null.
