             Summary: Stack trace is difficult to find when qtest fails during 
setup/teardown
                 Key: HIVE-25618
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-25618
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Testing Infrastructure
            Reporter: Stamatis Zampetakis
            Assignee: Stamatis Zampetakis


When a qtest fails while executing one of the setup/teardown methods of a CLI 
driver 
([CliAdapter|https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/3e37ba473545a691f5f32c08fc4b62b49257cab4/itests/util/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/cli/control/CliAdapter.java#L36]
 and its subclasses):

{code:java}
  public abstract void beforeClass() throws Exception;
  public abstract void setUp();
  public abstract void tearDown();
  public abstract void shutdown() throws Exception;
{code}

the original stack trace leading to the failure cannot be found easily. 

Maven console shows a stack trace which doesn't correspond to the actual 
exception causing the problem but another one which in most cases does not 
contain the original cause. 

The original stack trace is not displayed in the maven console and it is not in 
the {{target/tmp/logs/hive.log}} either. At the moment it goes to 
{{target/surefire-reports/...-output.txt}}. 

The developer needs to search in 2-3 places and navigate back and forth to the 
code in order to find what went wrong.

Ideally the stack trace from the original exception should be printed directly 
in maven console.
