@alamb thanks for your feedback. This PR was based on the work @andygrove started here https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/8760 and was really just the work of loading the tpch-gen answers and adding the comparison code. The original intention of Andy's work was to allow us to automate the tpch-gen process in the CICD testing allowing verification of a real-world test set - and actually quite a wide coverage test. This is why running without TPCH_DATA set does not fail the test - as we probably do not want to enable the automated testing yet nor make all PRs fail testing. If this rationale makes sense I can do some work on the README to make this clear? ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
