Gunther Hagleitner commented on HIVE-4907:
------------------------------------------
I like it. There are situations when you want to say something like:
ant test -D testcase=TestCliDriver,TestMinimrCliDriver -Dqfile_regex="smb_.*"
to run all smb tests in both testcases.
I would just apply the qfile, qfile_regex filter to all testcases in the list.
Also, I think comma separated testcase is nicer than adding classes with
additional.testcases, isn't it?
The missing piece is to either ignore qfiles that don't exist or only ignore
them when multiple tests are specified. I don't think that would be that bad,
for instance: I believe we already ignore testcases when they don't exist
without failure and if qfile_regex doesn't match anything we don't complain
either.

> Currently we only allow a single tests case to be specified with -Dtestcase.
> It'd be ideal if we could add on additional test cases as this would allow us
> to batch the unit tests in ptest2.
