-------------------------------------
Summary: Introduce a Gradle build parameter to set the default
forkEvery value for the tests
Key: SQOOP-3408
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-3408
Project: Sqoop
Issue Type: Test
Affects Versions: 1.4.7
Reporter: Szabolcs Vasas
The [forkEvery
parameter|https://docs.gradle.org/current/dsl/org.gradle.api.tasks.testing.Test.html#org.gradle.api.tasks.testing.Test:forkEvery]
of the Gradle test tasks is currently set to 0 which means that all of the
tests run in a single JVM (the only exception is the kerberizedTest task which
requires a new JVM for every test class).
The benefit of this setup is that the test tasks finish much faster since the
JVM creation is a slow operation. However the Sqoop test framework seems to
consume/leak too much memory which can lead to an OutOfMemoryError during the
build if there is not enough memory on the machine running the tests.
The goal of this JIRA is to introduce a new parameter to the Gradle build which
can be used to set the default forkEvery parameter and thus prevent the JVM
running out of memory.
