Github user poornachandra commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/incubator-tephra/pull/67 @ankitsinghal I spent some time on the tephra-hbase-compat-1.4 compat module tests failure. It looks like the 1.4 compat module tests were never run earlier. When you changed the travis.xml to build hbase-compat-1.4 module, the issue was exposed. I have filed JIRA https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TEPHRA-285 for this issue. Since the failure was already present, I will go ahead and merge this PR. Thanks for the contribution!
