---------------------------------------------------------------
@Roman, what kind of tests will be shell-based ? I am asking since most of the
integration tests is currently using groovy.
was (Author: dreambird):
@Roman, what's the scope of using this shell-based wrapper?
> Create a generic shell executor iTest driver

> It would be nice to have a way of generically wrapping up shell-based tests
> in iTest framework.
> I imagine a pretty simple implementation (at least initially) where on the
> iTest side we'd have a parameterized testsuite that would look inside a
> specific location under resources and instantiate one test per shell script
> that it finds there (subject to include/exclude filtering constraints). Then
> the tests will be exec'ed inside of a pre-set UNIX environment one-by-one (no
> parallel execution for now). If shell returns 0 -- the test passes, non 0 --
> fails (and the stderr/stdout get captured).
> Finally, I don't have any better answer to what the contract for the
> environment should be, but I'd like folks to chime in with suggestions. We
> can probably start with populating it with ALL of the properties extracted
> from Hadoop config files (core-site.xml, hdfs-site.xml, etc.) with obvious
> transformations (fs.default.name becomes FS_DEFAULT_NAME, etc.). Or we can
> have a manifest of what's allowed and what tests can rely on.
