Dima Spivak commented on HBASE-16536:
-------------------------------------
Any specific reason to change the name from {{FilterTestingCluster}} to
{{HBaseTestingClusterAutostarter}}? I just wonder if that name is going to
confuse new developers.
> Make the HBase minicluster easy to use for testing downstream applications.

> In many applications I write I use HBase to store information.
> A big problem is testing these applications.
> I have seen several situations where people have written tests that create
> tables in the development cluster and due to firewalls and such couldn't run
> those tests from Jenkins.
> A while ago I wrote the FilterTestingCluster class that makes unit testing
> the client side filters a lot easier. With this ticket I propose to make this
> more generic and make it so that user applications can easily incorporate it
> into their own unit tests without any major modifications to their
> application.
