Yes, it's a good first step and I look forward to getting much better
through-put of these tests.

I don't think there is an API to get the endpoint (Peter Jones, any
ideas?) so it may require TestLibrary to use reflection or sun.* code to
get it. Another sleazy suggestion is that it's in toString output and
TestLibrary would provide method to get the port that wouldn't require
all the tests to depend on it.
