We have a case where a particular test failed, passed and consequently failed again. The JIRA result reporter plug in as you would expect opened an issue the first time the test failed, then when it went away it resolved the issue but when it reappeared instead of reopening the bug or opening a new issue for the same test, it simply related it to the existing bug which is in the state of resolved, and indicated in the Junit report the issue was "resolved".

It seems like the plugin is not taking into account that the resolution of this bug happened prior to the new failure.

Is there a way around this? are you guys working on any kind of options for having the plug in reopen a previously resolved issue?
