Robert Muir commented on SOLR-5775:
-----------------------------------
I would actually like to enable solr tests for the smoketester as well. I think
its really bad this is disabled, as there could be a bad problem in a release
candidate and only manual verification really finds it. Lots of people
smoketest on different machines and platforms and I think this has value.
I know this all sounds like a high bar, but I think if we stay on top of this,
it will make it much easier on everyone. In this case it really is just a few
bad apples to fix!

> Key: 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 The old argument that "solr tests are allowed to fail" is no longer valid.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.
