I have a class that does a regular map job and a TableReduce based reduce job.
This class works when called as the main class either from eclipse or on my
pseudo cluster as long as hbase is up and running. I like to write a unit test
for it and like advices on the best way to proceed.
The best I came up with after googling for "hbase unit test" is a page that
suggest looking at org.apache.hadoop.hbase.TestTableMapReduce. I was able to
get this class to run after adding additional classes in:
* org.apache.hadoop.hbase
* org.apache.hadoop.hdfs
* org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.datanode
* org.apache.hadoop.mapred
* org.apahce.hadoop.net
* jetty-6.1.14.jar
After all this, the test worked but it was very slow as it had to start up
mini-cluster for dfs and etc. It seemed excessive that jetty was needed.
Please advise on whether there is a simpler way to do unit test.
Thanks in advance.
