Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-2609:
-------------------------------------

bq. BaseTokenSteamTestCase should be really available to everyone as a public 
and supported JAR file.

bq. new developers have a set of javadoced base classes againt those they need 
to write their tests

What does this mean? whats the backwards compatibility policy when we rip the 
API completely apart to improve test coverage 0.01%?

What is the discussion when its gone completely and part of the analyzers 
module, in order to move more analysis classes
to the analyzers module itself, perhaps because we are separating analysis from 
the indexer more and want to start adding 
'alternative' analysis APIs completely to the analyzers module (so we want this 
one pulled out of core) ?

Thats a big concrete concern of mine, if we introduce barriers to this kind of 
refactoring, but also other test improvements.

> The test classes are useful for writing unit tests for code external to the 
> Lucene project. It would be helpful to build a jar of these classes and 
> publish them as a maven dependency.
