Hanish Bansal commented on RANGER-381:
--------------------------------------
Defect fix required changes in regular expression for group name and message
displayed for warning on invalid group name.
Group creation is already validated by one of test case
org.apache.ranger.biz.TestXUserMgr.test13CreateXGroup() so I didn't make any
changes in test case.
To verify I followed below steps:
1. Create a group from Ranger admin UI with dot in name e.g. hanish.bansal
2. Assigned that group to a user lets say hanish.bansal
3. Also verified that policy is working fine for that group.
> Not able to create group with dot character

>
> When creating group with dot in name (E.g. "hanish.bansal") from Ranger admin
> UI, it gives error message "Please enter valid name".
> Since linux group naming convention allow dot (.) character, so same should
> be allowed from Ranger admin UI.
