> The intention of the test is to ensure that conversions from/to string do not alter the value no matter the timezone because the DATE/TIMESTAMP data types [should be timezone agnostic](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/Different+TIMESTAMP+types). > > Changing LocalDateTime to ZonedDateTime defeats the purpose of the tests and actually hides a bug that affects the MetaStoreUtils APIs. > > I left a similar comment under the JIRA ticket. Yes, I agree with you regarding the intention and purpose of the test. I am looking into the issue and would re-work this PR taking the MetaStoreUtils APIs into account. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
