Dan Smith commented on GEODE-5735:
----------------------------------
I think basic intention of these tests is to test that that different
configurations of region still obey the same Region contract. So it does kinda
make since to run the same test against many different configurations. But
maybe these tests aren't organized that well; for example I'm not quite sure
why a deep inheritance heirarchy is necessary and I definitely see some tests
being disabled or having if conditions for some configurations.
> Layers of inheritance generating thousands of tests.

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-5735
> Project: Geode
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: core
> Reporter: Mark Hanson
> Priority: Major
>
> Distributed(No)AckRegion*DUnitTests inherits from
> Distributed(No)AckRegionDUnitTest test class which inherits from the
> MultiVMRegionTestCase test class which inherits from the RegionTestCase test
> class. This is generating a large number of tests that do virtually the same
> things.
> Maybe we don't need so many duplicated tests. Perhaps the thing to do is to
> define some base classes and that do what we need more effectively.
