------------------------------------------

             Summary: Support database reuse when using qt:database option
                 Key: HIVE-25668
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-25668
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Testing Infrastructure
            Reporter: Stamatis Zampetakis


With HIVE-25594 it is possible to initialize and use various types of databases 
in tests. At the moment all the supported databases rely on docker containers 
which are initialized/destroyed in per test basis. This is good in terms of 
test isolation but it brings a certain performance overhead slowing down tests. 
At the moment it is fine since the feature it is not widely used  but it would 
be good to have a way to reuse a database in multiple qfiles. 

The developper could specify in the qfile if they want to reuse a container (if 
it is possible) by passing certain additional options. The declaration could 
look like below:
{noformat}
--!qt:database:type=mysql;script=q_test_country_table.sql;reuse=true{noformat}
