I think these tests are far too specific for the quickstarts. Why starting
your own Flink cluster when the local execution environment would do the same?
People using the quickstarts should not have immediately a problem with long
test run times so it shouldn't hurt them if a cluster is started for each test
case.
I think it would be better to properly document these testing techniques
somewhere since they are only relevant for advanced users. We might include
them in the online documentation or in the planned Flink streaming cook book.
