      1. Remove plugins folder form installer jar so installation would fail.
      2. Run installer without UI like:

      DISPLAY="" java -jar installer-XXXX.jar

      3. ASSSERT: It shows errors about missing artifacts to standard output

    Description

      Currently if installer has problems installing JBDS in headless (automated) mode it tries to show error dialog. It works for normal installation when it is called with GUI available, but if fails if GUI is not available. 

      Exception in thread "IzPack - Unpacker thread" java.lang.InternalError: Can't connect to X11 window server using '' as the value of the DISPLAY variable.

      Most resent example is installer headless tests was failing to show installation error and we had to enable tracing to find the reason. Installer should recognize automated mode, print error message to standard error output and return appropriate error code.
