Regarding to "We also need to check the retraction of a single value not
all values (the SumAggregator retraction of all values was correct because the
count was 0)"
Instead of adding a new test to just retraction one, I think we could just
add the check to compare two accumulators (comparing the getValues is not
sufficient enough anymore).
assertEquals(accumulator, resultAccum)
The accumulator should go back the initial status, after retracting all the
previous inputs. This should be good enough to valid accumulate and retraction.

> Retraction method is help for processing updated message. It will also very

> into the aggregateFunctions, such that on-going over window Aggregation can
