Carl Steinbach commented on HIVE-1012:
--------------------------------------
@Prasad: Good suggestion, but it would then be necessary for the user to
specify "test1\.q" for "test1.q" since "test1.q" would mean "test1[any
character]q". Requiring the user to specify "test1\.q" seems onerous.
I also want to point out that you can convert any comma-separated "qfile"
string into a valid qfile_regex string by replacing all "." with "\." and all
"," with "|"
> Ability to run testcases via regular expression

> Currently the testing infrastructure makes it possible to specify individual
> testcases using the "qfile" switch, e.g.:
> ant test -Dtestcase=TestCliDriver -Dqfile=udf_sin.q,udf_cos.q,udf_acos.q
> I would also like to be able to specify testcases using a regular expression,
> e.g.:
> ant test -Dtestcase=TestCliDriver -Dqfile_regex="udf.*"
> The previous command should trigger the execution of all testcases starting
> with "udf".
