There are use-cases where it can make sense to run dedicated clusters for each test, for example when you add a taskmanager to the cluster within a test (test scale-up of a job), doing something destructive like killing a taskmanager (scala-down / recovery) or creating an intentional resource leak. Mind you that that these things are easily possible since we expose the MiniCluster. However, I'd consider these as niche use-cases that we shouldn't don't have to focus on (at this time). There are multiple ways to workaround this (spread tests across classes / wrap extension / manual life-cycling) in any case. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
