--------------------------------------------
Summary: System tests don't handle errors well
Key: KAFKA-1746
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1746
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 0.8.1.1
Reporter: Ewen Cheslack-Postava
The system test scripts don't handle errors well. A couple of key issues:
* Unexpected exceptions during tests are just ignored and the tests appear to
be successful in the reports.
* The scripts exit code is always 0, even if tests fail.
* Almost no subprocess calls are checked. In a lot of cases this is ok, and
sometimes it's not possible (e.g. after starting a long-running remote
process), but in some cases such as calls to DumpLogSegments, the tests can
miss that the tools is exiting with an exception and the test appears to be
successful even though no data was verified.
