> Key: HADOOP-9330
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9330

> Issue Type: Test
> Components: test
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0
> Reporter: Steve Loughran

>
> HADOOP-9112 has added a requirement for all new test methods to declare a
> timeout, so that jenkins/maven builds will have better information on a
> timeout.
> Hard coding timeouts into tests is dangerous as it will generate spurious
> failures on slower machines/networks and when debugging a test.
> I propose providing a custom JUnit4 test runner that test cases can declare
> as their test runner; this can provide timeouts specified at run-time, rather
> than in-source.
