Aaron T. Myers commented on HDFS-4214:
--------------------------------------
bq. even though this is just a debug log, the information printed will be used
for taking next steps on how to fix the editlog, right? If so, should we add a
unit test anyway?
What sort of test do you have in mind? One that checks that something is
actually written to stderr? Or a test that EditLogInputStream#getPosition
actually returns what's expected? In general I'm all for more tests, but this
seems like a spot where it's annoying to write one and it won't actually test
much.
