Dima Spivak commented on HBASE-13672:
-------------------------------------
We actually did this for a time at Cloudera in hopes of better utilizing hosts,
but found that tests would become flakey, even if run in separate containers,
because of resource contention; it really seems that HBase tests need to be the
only executor on a pretty beefy Jenkins slave. I'd be happy to post up the
Dockerfile I used to build the hbase-test-slave image that we used, though.

> On HADOOP-11933, Hadoop is thinking about running their precommit builds in a
> Docker container under Jenkins. If they can get this working, this is
> definitely something to look at adopting here. Unquestionably it will improve
> test repeatability and stability by reducing variability we see from test VM
> to test VM. Could be useful for all builds, not just precommit.
