             Summary: Disable constantly failing solr tests
                 Key: SOLR-5775
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-5775
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Build
            Reporter: Robert Muir


Currently, solr tests are failing 90%+ of the time. We've been through this 
before many times, the argument is always that someone is looking at the 
failures and knows which ones are bad.

This argument is a lie. Nobody is watching these failures, or 
DistributedQueryComponentOptimizationTest would not have failed repeatedly for 
two straight days when the fix was trivial (I fixed this last night: 
http://svn.apache.org/r1571930)

Its frustrating to me as a committer, solr tests *NEVER* pass on my machine, no 
matter how many times I try. How can i possibly commit something without 
knowing i am making the situation even worse?

This is all a big problem for developers, release managers, even users of the 
project. The test suite should pass.

The old argument that "solr tests are allowed to fail" is no longer valid. I 
will disable all constantly failing tests.
