I vote for removing compression configuration and actually allow to manually 
specify yaml file to be used for testing as a test property, as well as allow 
to manually specify extra system properties to be passed to the test. That 
would make the build more flexible and remove a bit of redundant code.

I think we should (at least try to) track down the devs who added the 
{{test-compression}} variant to CI to find out why it was important at the time.

> When running unit tests with "compression" configuration, we actually not use 
> compression at all we run just unit tests without compression (which is 
> redundant when running on CI).
> The reason is that for the compression configuration we (try to) do the 
> following:
> {code}
>       <property name="compressed_yaml" 
> value="${build.test.dir}/cassandra.compressed.yaml"/>
>       <concat destfile="${compressed_yaml}">
>           <fileset file="${test.conf}/cassandra.yaml"/>
>           <fileset file="${test.conf}/commitlog_compression.yaml"/>
>       </concat>
> {code}
> however, {{cassandra.compressed.yaml}} has been replaced in CASSANDRA-14482 
> by two files {{commitlog_compression_LZ4.yaml}} and 
> {{commitlog_compression_Zstd.yaml}} without changing build configuration.
> All in all we could fix that but I doubt it makes any sense since {{cdc}} 
> configuration already uses compressed commit log anyway so it feels redundant 
> to test compression alone for each CI run. 
> I vote for removing compression configuration and actually allow to manually 
> specify yaml file to be used for testing as a test property, as well as allow 
> to manually specify extra system properties to be passed to the test. That 
> would make the build more flexible and remove a bit of redundant code.
