Chris Nauroth commented on HADOOP-13231:
----------------------------------------

bq. Should those named tests be .class rather than .java?

Using .java is correct, as per Maven's documentation on [Inclusions and 
Exclusions of 
Tests|http://maven.apache.org/surefire/maven-surefire-plugin/examples/inclusion-exclusion.html].

Repeating a comment from HADOOP-13139:

{code}
mvn test -Dtest=TestS3A*  -Pparallel-tests -DtestsThreadCount=2
{code}

[[email protected]], when you pass a {{-Dtest=}} argument, you are overriding 
the {{<includes>}} list passed to Surefire during the build.  Passing 
{{TestS3A*}} matches all the S3A test suites, including the ones I listed in 
{{<excludes>}} to prevent parallel execution.  I just tested this, and it looks 
like if Surefire finds the same test matching both the whitelist and the 
blacklist, then the whitelist wins.  Therefore, tests that can't handle 
parallel execution end up running in the parallel phase.

Unfortunately, I think this means you can't reliably do both 
{{-Pparallel-tests}} and {{-Dtest=TestS3A*}} in the same {{mvn}} run.  I had 
flagged all multi-part upload tests to run outside the parallel phase because 
of the abort-existing-uploads-on-init logic, so I wouldn't expect them to work 
well in the parallel phase.

It would be nice to be able to run only S3A tests in parallel for more rapid 
iterations on patches that touch only S3A code.  I think we'd need to use some 
other naming convention on all non-parallel-safe test suite classes to support 
that, so that you could specify a wildcard to {{-Dtest=}} that wouldn't match 
those suites.
