> The test suite takes a long time to run, and a lot of the time spent running
> is really wasted on repeated startup and shutdown, waiting for asynchronous
> events to occur, and production-tuned timeouts to occur. Additionally, we use
> a MiniDFS instead of the local filesystem.
> We should:
> - Make whatever changes are needed to the local DFS so that it can run on
> Windows and use that as the basis of all of our tests
> - Minimize redoing expensive setup where possible by combining tests into
> groups or suites that can share common setup
> - Create a way of running all the parts (Master, Regionserver, Client) in a
> single thread and explicitly advancing through necessary states so that we
> can reliably and quickly get what we need tested accomplished
> - Use smaller test datasets where it would make a difference (TestTableIndex
> and TestTableMapReduce, I'm looking at you!)
> A faster test suite means faster turnaround on new patches, faster Hudson,
> and a shorter patch queue. Not to mention less annoyance on the part of the
> developers.
