Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-13104:
-----------------------------------------

Nothing against making the values public, and we could even enumerate the 
differences. It's a different question as to whether and how to make those 
differences known. Someone —Sanjay? Suresh? wanted the XML files to be in the 
test/resources tree for that reason: to keep the details private

> Document meaning of all file system contract options used in the contract 
> tests.

> The file system contract tests support a set of contract options.  Each file 
> system's specific test suite subclasses may set these options, and they alter 
> the behavior of the tests to account for the inevitable differences in 
> semantics in some implementations.  The {{ContractOptions}} interface already 
> has JavaDocs describing the behavior of the options.  This issue proposes 
> propagating similar documentation up to the public site.  This also will be 
> valuable as a source of information for understanding differences in 
> semantics at a high level, i.e. POSIX vs. HDFS vs. S3A.
