Konstantin Boudnik commented on BIGTOP-1192:
--------------------------------------------
bq. many ssh keypairs and the default one is the wrong one
Well, sure. But I am talking a case when one runs iTest unit tests, e.g. in
case of localhost environment. In this particular case - according to the
earlier comment about the use of {{sudo}} you won't even need to slogin
anywhere.
For truly distibuted setup your argument might be valid and an extra setup
would be required. But I am concerned about unit tests - that should be
effortless and not expecting anything special to be set if possible.

> Key: BIGTOP-1192
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-1192
> Project: Bigtop
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Tests
> Affects Versions: 0.7.0
> Reporter: Mikhail Antonov
> Assignee: Mikhail Antonov
> Labels: itest, smokes
> Fix For: 0.8.0
>
> Attachments: BIGTOP-1192.1.patch, BIGTOP-1192.2.patch
>
>
> The goal is to provide Bigtop module maintainers with a set of set of util
> classes to help develop smoke tests able to simulate certain failures during
> smoke tests execution on a cluster.
> Summary of what is provided in current patch.
> Following failure types are supported now:
> - Service stopped and restarted (on given set of nodes)
> - Service killed with 'kill -9' and started back up (on given set of nodes)
> - Node inbound/outbound connections are shut down and brought back up (via
> iptables).
>
> System requirements to run smoke tests with failures.
> * password-less (PKI-based) root ssh to all nodes in cluster being tested
> is assumed.
> * for local tests, like ClusterFailuresTest, one should have password-less
> root ssh to localhost.
> * env variable BIGTOP_SMOKES_CLUSTER_IDENTITY_FILE should point to
> according private key file.
> Further thoughts (not included in this patch)
> Cluster provisioning
> - Bigtop test framework (failures part of it) doesn't need to know about
> cluster topology, as it simply executes set of SSH commands on remote hosts
> (whose addresses are provided by specific
> module smoke test developer). But the actual tests do need to know about
> cluster topology to run sophisticated failure scenarios.
