Description:
According to http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysqltest/en/mysqltest-commands.html

 shutdown_server [timeout]

Stops the server. This command waits for the server to shut down by monitoring its process ID (PID) file. If the server's process ID file is not gone after timeout seconds, the process will be killed. If timeout is omitted, the default is 60 seconds.

However, --shutdown_server seems not to work in latest 6.0 and 6.0-falcon bzr trees.

How to repeat:
Write a test which consists of two parts and check server uptime like:

File 1:

#
# Test whether --shutdown_server works. Part I/II.
#
SHOW GLOBAL STATUS LIKE 'Uptime';
--real_sleep 3
SHOW GLOBAL STATUS LIKE 'Uptime';
--shutdown_server

File 2:
#
# Test whether --shutdown_server works. Part II/II.
#
--real_sleep 3
# Uptime should be 3 or 4 but not 6!
SHOW GLOBAL STATUS LIKE 'Uptime';

main.shutdown_server_I         [ pass ]           3004
main.shutdown_server_II        [ fail ]

Thank you for the report.

Verified as described.

From the documentation:
    This command was added in MySQL 5.1.26/6.0.6.

Therefore removed 5.0 from version list.

I get this error when using include/restart_mysqld.inc like

File 1:

#
# Test whether --shutdown_server works. Part I/II.
#
SHOW GLOBAL STATUS LIKE 'Uptime';
--real_sleep 3
SHOW GLOBAL STATUS LIKE 'Uptime';

--source include/restart_mysqld.inc

main.shutdown_server_I         [ fail ]

mysqltest: In included file "./include/restart_mysqld.inc": At line 10: query 'shutdown_server 10' failed: 1064: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'shutdown_server 10' at line 1

Looks like shutdown_server is still in 5.1-rpl and 6.0-rpl ie. it has not reached the mian 5.1 and 6.0 trees. The documentation update was an error.

The --source include/restart_mysqld.inc feature does not seems to work properly in valgrind and possibly other "slow" configurations, see Bug#40636 (falcon_bug_28095 test fails with "Server failed to restart" in valgrind runs).

Please re-verify, it looks like the code is there at this time.

Currently test shutdown_server_I  fails with:

main.shutdown_server_I                   [ fail ]
        Test ended at 2009-06-08 22:21:14

CURRENT_TEST: main.shutdown_server_I

Server [mysqld.1 - pid: 16955, winpid: 16955, exit: 0] failed during test run

shutdown_server has been supported for a long time now, closing this old bug
