             Summary: Flakey test 
TestActionCheckXCommand.testActionCheckTransientDuringMRAction
                 Key: OOZIE-1332
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OOZIE-1332
             Project: Oozie
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: tests
    Affects Versions: 3.3.2, trunk, 4.0.0
            Reporter: Robert Kanter
            Assignee: Robert Kanter
             Fix For: trunk, 4.0.0


We've been seeing 
TestActionCheckXCommand.testActionCheckTransientDuringMRAction as flakey on our 
CI tests.  

This incorrect sequence of events was occurring:
{noformat}
...
- ActionCheckXCommand start
  - suspend WF
- ActionCheckXCommand end
- ActionCheckXCommand start
  - JT up
  - unknown hadoop job error
    - fail WF
- ActionCheckXCommand end
- ResumeXCommand cannot start (because WF fail)
- test finish
{noformat}
when this correct sequence of events should have been occuring:
{noformat}
...
- ActionCheckXCommand start
  - suspend WF
- ActionCheckXCommand end
- JT Up
- ResumeXCommand start
- ResumeXCommand end
- ActionStartXCommand start
- ActionStartXCommadn end
- ActionCheckXCommand start
- ActionCheckXCommand end
...
- test finish
{noformat}

It turns out that the ActionCheckerService was triggering an extra 
ActionCheckXCommand at just the wrong moment.  We should disable the 
ActionCheckerService during this test to prevent this issue (When I originally 
wrote the test, I incorrectly thought it was needed and that it had to run more 
frequently to make the test faster).

As a pre-emptive measure, we should also do this for 
TestActionCheckXCommand.testActionCheckTransientDuringLauncher, which is very 
similar even though we didn't see any flakiness.
