--------------------------------
Summary: Leverage bigtop to build a patch deployment tester for
hadoop.
Key: BIGTOP-1329
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-1329
Project: Bigtop
Issue Type: Wish
Components: VM
Affects Versions: backlog
Reporter: jay vyas
Priority: Minor
YARN-1964 demonstrates that testing patches in hadoop is not just about unit
testing anymore : End to end testing is increasingly valuable.
Lets create a vagrant recipe in bigtop which
1) Pulls a jira patch down
2) Builds hadoop from scratch and
3) Packages it in a local repo, in a VM.
4) Runs a smoke test on the patch.
This essentially would validate that (1) bigtop hadoop packaging is up-to-date
with the code on hadoop head (2) Give the hadoop community a solid utility for
end-to-end testing of YARN apps.
This jira will be a significant undertaking, and we will work some on the idea
during the BigTop Meetup today.
Lets start by diagraming the process for end-to-end testing of a hadoop patch
using bigtop-rpms, and ensuring that its actually feasible.
