Could this class be generalized for all spilling operators (and then
customized for Sort, e.g., merge related parts.) ? There are some parts with
"fuzzy math" (e.g. batch size estimates; memory needed) ; Hash Agg is also
doing its own fuzzy math - should all these be done the same way ?
(The Hash Agg tried to be more conservative - like assuming 3 batches per a
partition, though in theory 2 would do; currently this is controlled with an
option)

> Key: DRILL-5325
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-5325
> Project: Apache Drill
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Tools, Build & Test
> Affects Versions: 1.11.0
> Reporter: Paul Rogers
> Assignee: Paul Rogers
> Fix For: 1.11.0
>
>
> Validate the proposed sub-operator test framework, by creating low-level unit
> tests for the managed version of the external sort.
> The external sort has a small number of existing tests, but those tests are
> quite superficial; the "managed sort" project found many bugs. The managed
> sort itself was tested with ad-hoc system-level tests created using the new
> "cluster fixture" framework. But, again, such tests could not reach deep
> inside the sort code to exercise very specific conditions.
> As a result, we spent far too much time using QA functional tests to identify
> specific code issues.
> Using the sub-opeator unit test framework, we can instead test each bit of
> functionality at the unit test level.
> If doing so works, and is practical, it can serve as a model for other
> operator testing projects.
