I have just finished these updates. The following changes/new features have been made:
* Update Rakefile to install 0.6.13, 0.7.4, 0.8.0-beta1 to ~/cassandra/cassandra-VERSION * Add data:load task to Rakefile for creating the schema required for the tests * Default the Rakefile to use 0.8-beta1 * Setup test suite to work on 0.6.13, 0.7.4, and 0.8.0-beta1 * All tests pass for all supported (0.6.13, 0.7.4, 0.8.0-beta1) versions. * Added Support for 0.8-beta1 * Changed get_index_slices to return a hash of rows * Updated Cassandra::Mock to pass all tests for each Cassandra version Please review my changes at: https://github.com/rjackson/cassandra I have submitted a pull request to the main fauna/cassandra repo on Github. The next round of updates will be to add an additional "version" for CQL.

I am a relative newcomer to Cassandra in general, and working on the internals of the client has really helped. To make sure that I didn't loose any ground with other versions of Cassandra, I updated the test suite so that it can run tests against 0.6, 0.7, and 0.8. This works by setting a CASSANDRA_VERSION env variable before calling the normal rake or bin/cassandra_helper scripts. Run the cassandra version with: CASSANDRA_VERSION=0.8 rake cassandra Then you can run the tests with: CASSANDRA_VERSION=0.8 rake I still have a ways to go with getting all the tests passing, but at this point 0.8 and 0.6 have around 6 failures and 8 errors. (I am struggling with an schema loading issue with 0.7.4.) I hope to have the tests all passing in the next couple of days, and hopefully we can get the changes pushed upstream. Then I am going to start fleshing out the CQL version (which hopefully shouldn't be such a moving target between Cassandra versions). I would certainly appreciate any feedback on my work so far. https://github.com/rjackson/cassandra/tree/cassandra_0.8 Robert Jackson
