Karthik Ranganathan commented on HBASE-2414:
--------------------------------------------
Something along the following lines would help accomplish this:
- In a version of the tests, the master and region server threads each have a
method to receive a string representation of the task they have to carry out
- They use reflection and execute the call only when called by the external
caller. That way we can "serialize" the distributed execution.
> Enhance test suite to be able to specify distributed scenarios

> Key: HBASE-2414
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-2414
> Project: Hadoop HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: test
> Affects Versions: 0.20.3
> Reporter: Karthik Ranganathan
>
> We keep finding good cases that are reasonably hard to test, yet the test
> suite does not encode these.
> For example:
> HBASE-2413 Master does not respect generation stamps, may result in meta
> getting permanently offlined
> HBASE-2312 Possible data loss when RS goes into GC pause while rolling HLog
> I am sure there are many more such "scenarios" we should put into the unit
> tests.
