Ashutosh Chauhan commented on HCATALOG-67:
------------------------------------------
Forgot to address Alan's previous comments:
bq. I don't see the generic harness code here anywhere.
This is now pulled in via svn:extern from pig. Ideally, we would like to get it
as a tarball from maven repo.
bq. I also don't see any test drivers. The conf files reference a
TestDriverHCat.pm
Previous patch missed some files. Latest patch has those files.
bq. HCatTypeCheck throws an exception ..
This will cause map-reduce job to fail. Client will still be alive and report
status as fail to the harness. So, this will end up as test failure not abort.
bq. TypeCheckData claims to produce output to be checked against golden files.
It actually tries to check against the data from database, not against the
static golden files. We need to rewrite this checking part in any case.
bq. Is the purpose of bootstrap_hcat.conf to setup for future tests or is it
actually testing things?
Yes, right place for this is deployer script. Currently deployer script only
generates and copies data to hdfs, it needs to be enhanced wherein it can do
creation of tables in metastore also. For now, I have added it in tests itself.
Since most of these issues are taken care of in latest patch, I will check-in
this patch soon.
