Maybe I am misunderstanding the functionality here, but I see a split
looking like this. Of course, you know the work better than me, so maybe there
is a slightly different way we need to tackle this.
(1) PR 1: Introduce bundle/extension mechanism. We would have
unit/integration tests for this functionality. Your manual test steps would
describe step-by-step how to create a parser extension (meaning all the steps
that your Maven plugin automates).
(2) PR 2: Introduce the Maven plugin. You would have unit tests for the
plugin along with a manual test plan describing how a user would go about using
the plugin to create a parser extension.
(3) PR 3: Migrate the parsers to use the bundle/extension mechanism. You
would again have unit/integration tests. Your manual test steps would describe
how to build and deploy the parsers using your extension mechanism.
(4) PR 4: Updates to the Ambari MPack. This just automates some of the
setup steps that were performed manually in the previous PRs.
