----------------------------------------
Summary: Test multiple erasure coding implementations
Key: HDFS-11543
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-11543
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Sub-task
Components: erasure-coding
Affects Versions: 3.0.0-alpha2
Reporter: László Bence Nagy
Priority: Minor
Potentially, multiple native erasure coding plugins will be available to be
used from HDFS later on. These plugins should be tested as well. For example,
the *NativeRSRawErasureCoderFactory* class - which is used for instantiating
the native ISA-L plugin's encoder and decoder objects - are used in 5 test
files under the
*hadoop/hadoop-hdfs-project/hadoop-hdfs/src/test/java/org/apache/hadoop/hdfs/*
directory. The files are:
- *TestDFSStripedInputStream.java*
- *TestDFSStripedOutputStream.java*
- *TestDFSStripedOutputStreamWithFailure.java*
- *TestReconstructStripedFile.java*
- *TestUnsetAndChangeDirectoryEcPolicy.java*
Other erasure coding plugins should be tested in these cases as well in a nice
way (not by for example making a new file for every new erasure coding plugin).
For this purpose [parameterized
tests|https://github.com/junit-team/junit4/wiki/parameterized-tests] might be
used.
This is also true for the
*hadoop/hadoop-common-project/hadoop-common/src/test/java/org/apache/hadoop/io/erasurecode/rawcoder/*
directory where this approach could be used for example for the
interoperability tests (when it is checked that certain erasure coding
implementations are compatible with each other by doing the encoding and
decoding operations with different plugins and verifying their results). The
plugin pairs which should be tested could be the parameters for the
parameterized tests.
The parameterized test is just an idea, there can be other solutions as well.
