Sean Busbey commented on HBASE-7782:
------------------------------------
The truncating version of this can be handled with HBASE-8332 now.
Any preference on wether existing use of HBTU.truncateTable should use the
renamed deleteTableData method?
> HBaseTestingUtility.truncateTable() not acting like CLI
> -------------------------------------------------------

> Key: HBASE-7782
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-7782
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: test
> Affects Versions: 0.94.3
> Reporter: Adrien Mogenet
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: cli, hbasetest, test
>
> I would like to discuss the behavior of the truncateTable() method of
> HBaseTestingUtility. It's currently only removing the data through a
> scan/delete pattern.
> However, the truncate command in CLI is doing additional things: it disables
> the tables, drop, creates (with similar column descriptors) and then enables
> the table.
> I think the truncateTable() method is misleading; for example I used it to
> force a coprocessor to be reloaded, but it did not. Of course I can disable
> and enable the table by myself within my unit test, but perhaps it deserves
> to be discussed?
