Review request for hive.


Repository: hive-git


Description
-------

Currently in QTestGenTask.execute(), we have code like :
       if (logFile != null) {
         File lf = new File(logFile);
         if (lf.exists()) {
           if (!lf.delete()) {
             throw new Exception("Could not delete log file " + 
lf.getCanonicalPath());
         }
If the log file gets locked due to some other process, it throws the above 
exception and short circuits the entire test suite. We should provide a 
mechanism to generate alternative new log files/temporary files whenever 
possible to avoid unit test failures.
