> Project: Apache Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: CI
> Reporter: David Capwell
> Assignee: David Capwell
> Priority: Normal
> Fix For: NA
>
> Time Spent: 50m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> There are several tests that set the SSTable format for the test, but this is
> a global field and a background compaction can read the format and make
> different decisions; leading to flakey failures.
> The motivating issue is that the new compaction cursor logic checks that the
> format is BIG and then enables, else it falls back to previous logic. When
> the test changes to BTI this can cause a race with compaction leading to type
> cast issues.
> Switching the format at runtime is currently not supported and something done
> specifically by tests, so need to make sure tests do it in a safe way to make
> CI stable.
