Luis Filipe Nassif commented on TIKA-2430:
------------------------------------------
Awesome [[email protected]], you rocks! For sure randomly overwriting some
sequential block chunk in a file is a very common use case in forensic field,
where deleted files can be partially overwritten by the OS. I will leave this
closed and we can improve later.
> Add at least dev test capability to run Tika against corrupted files in our
> test suite

> [~lfcnassif] observed on TIKA-2428 that a corrupt file caused a permanent
> hang for the EMFParser. Files can be corrupted for various reasons. We can
> add some optional code to let people experiment with running Tika against
> randomly corrupted versions of the files in our test suite. I suspect that
> this will unearth too many errors to start to be run on a regular basis.
> Let's at least add some code in tika-parsers to let devs run the tests.
