Quick "smoke tests" testsuite
-----------------------------
Key: HBASE-2675
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-2675
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Test
Reporter: Benoit Sigoure
Priority: Minor
It would be nice if there was a known subset of the tests that run fast (e.g.
not more than a few seconds) and quickly help us check whether the code isn't
horribly broken. This way one could run those tests at a frequent interval
when iterating and only run the entire testsuite at the end, when they think
they're done, since doing so is very time consuming.
Someone would need to identify which tests really focus on the core
functionality and add a target in the build system to just run those tests. As
a bonus, it would be awesome++ if the core tests ran, say, 10x faster than they
currently do. There's a lot of "sleep"-based "synchronization" in the tests
and it would be nice to remove some of that where possible to make the tests
run as fast as the machine can handle them.
