JMeter does not call System.exit(int) except when a serious error occurs.
This is to allow embedded usage.

I can think of two options:
1) write the sample results to a JTL file, and post-process that to
determine if the test succeeded or not.
2) write an Assertion element using Beanshell or BSF that invokes
System.exit() with non-zero code. JMeter uses exit(1) for severe
error.

There may be other approaches.
