Konstantin Boudnik commented on BIGTOP-1608:
--------------------------------------------

I believe the overall aim is to move to Gradle and eventually eradicate maven, 
right? If so - would we be better of by wrapping existing Maven iTest module 
into Gradle so it becomes transparent for the Gradle parts of the system, like 
new smoke tests? This will allow to preserve the Maven parts of the tests in 
the working condition, along with their dependency on iTest. BTW, the way 
Maven'ized tests depend on iTest is by enforcing the iTest artifact 
re-installation into local .m2/ and then pulling it as the dependency.

Later we'll figure out how to completely replace maven bits with Gradle and 
that will be the end of it. But I am still very much dislike the idea of source 
dependency from tests to the framework.


> all smoke-tests should compile and use iTest as source, no jar.  Remove ITEST 
> env variable.

> If you try to run the smoke tests without setting {{BIGTOP_HOME}} they will 
> run and be unable to find tests, so nothing runs. This variable should be 
> added to checkEnv to make sure its present while running
