Vinod K V commented on HADOOP-4191: ----------------------------------- That's quite a few things to keep track of. Instead of trying to track them *only* via a test case, we can centralize these requirements in something like a schema definition, which can then be used by jobhistory clients to validate a history file before its usage.
