Summary: Consider Required TraversalStrategies
Key: TINKERPOP3-669
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP3-669
Project: TinkerPop 3
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: process
Reporter: stephen mallette
Priority: Minor
As we now execute the Gremln process suite with and without strategies applied,
it became apparent that some strategies are simply "required". See:
https://github.com/apache/incubator-tinkerpop/blob/0d239c05638269e6cd5c7af7bd3c61a50627d0bc/tinkergraph-gremlin/src/test/java/org/apache/tinkerpop/gremlin/tinkergraph/process/TinkerGraphNoStrategyComputerProvider.java#L41-L46

Not sure what this means in the grand scheme of things. A few things that feel
weird or require more thought:
1. Kinda weird that a {{Traversal}} requires any strategies at all to execute.
2. Kinda weird that a {{Step}} should know anything about strategies as is the
case with {{ConjunctionStrategy}} for example.
3. If required strategies are expected then should those required strategies be
somewhere more prominently maintained/documented/etc than just being relegated
to the test suite
Not sure anything really needs to change here, just wanted to create an issue
for future thought.
