------------------------------------------
Summary: Run positive/negative qtests with the same CLI drivers
Key: HIVE-24681
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-24681
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Testing Infrastructure
Reporter: Stamatis Zampetakis
Currently tests that should fail need to run with some variant of
{{NegativeCliDriver}} which expects that the return code for a query is
non-zero. Alternatively, we could include the error (if any) in the query
output file itself and assert simply that the output didn't change. There are
certain advantages in doing so:
* Simpler code and less classes to maintain;
* Possibility to mix positive/negative queries in the same .q file;
* Possibility to include multiple negative queries in the same .q file;
* No need for special directory structure for positive/negative tests;
The proposal above implies removing {{NegativeCliDriver}} and related code in
favor of the regular CLI drivers.
