----------------------------------
Hi cos: okay, so you've ** almost ** talked me down off the ledge, but not
quite yet :) . ** Thanks for all your feedback **. So to clarify, as this has
been a long conversation, can you answer these questions:
- Can we replace "maven verify" with a gradle equivalent , or not?
- Can you start a requirements page with the finer points here (i.e. about
bigtop gaurantees) for the smoke tests somewhere ? That way I can match my
JIRAs to the requirements before proposing one-off patches which are contrary
to the overall goals of bigtop.
> Completely gradleize the bigtop smokes

> Key: BIGTOP-1222
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-1222
> Project: Bigtop
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: jay vyas
>
> Currently, there is a JIRA underway to make running the maven based smoke
> tests easier: BIGTOP-1195.
> Eventually, however, maybe we could run these smokes from gradle. I think
> that will obviate BIGTOP-1195 (Although i still assert a bash driver is a big
> win/gain for bigtop's goals : which are to unify the hadoop packaging and
> deployment paradigm).
> - run the smokes using a simple gradle goal
> - smokes should be easily runnable as scripts, with no need for jar file
> intermediates.
> - The bash driver for BIGTOP-1195 (if accepted, still under debate) should be
> upgraded to use the new gradle smokes
> - Delete old maven smokes.
> This might be a little ambitious, if so others chime in. I'm not a
> gradle/groovy expert but getting more well versed.
