--------------------------------------------------
Summary: Consider: speed up dev. tests using Maven
"integration-test" phase
Key: DRILL-2026
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-2026
Project: Apache Drill
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Daniel Barclay (Drill/MapR)
Because many of our unit test classes (unit tests in the sense of being run by
Surefire in Maven's "test" phase) need to have a running Drillbit, then because
they are unit tests, each such test class starts up its own Drillbit, taking
quite a while, especially considering the aggregate time.
Consider moving Drillbit-needing tests to be Maven integration tests (run in
Maven's "integration-test" phase by Failsafe).
That would allow for starting up a Drillbit (or multiple Drillbits and other
servers) in Maven's "pre-integration-test" phase, using those servers for all
tests, and shutting down the servers in Maven's "post-integration-test" phase.
That should save quite a lot of time--the product of the time per Drillbit
startup plus shutdown and the number of test classes changed to integration
tests.
