-----------------------------------

             Summary: IllegalFormatException for '%' in Output
                 Key: MRUNIT-185
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MRUNIT-185
             Project: MRUnit
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.0.0
            Reporter: Joseph Beard


In cases where the expected output does not match the actual output, the Errors 
class will treat the error message created by the 
TestDriver.checkTypesAndLogError(...) method as a format string.  If either the 
Expected or Actual Output value contains a '%' character, the String.format 
will result in some type of IllegalFormatException.  In my case, I received an 
UnknownFormatConversionException with "%D" in the expected output.

Fortunately, this behavior is only triggered if the unit test is in error, but 
it can make tracking down the source of the issue hard to find.
