--------------------------------------
Summary: TestCurrentHourProvider fails if the latest timezone
changes are not present
Key: HBASE-25385
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-25385
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Christine Feng
According to [this
link|https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/tzdata-versions.html], a few
timezones underwent changes in October of this year. For environments that do
not have these latest updates, TestCurrentHourProvider will fail since
information for certain time zones is out of date.
Example: On an environment running jdk8, this test fails for timezones
America/Dawson, America/Whitehorse, Canada/Yukon, and Antarctica/Casey (all of
which were affected by the latest changes described at the above link).
It seems that if timezone information on a particular environment is not up to
date with the latest changes, this shouldn't indicate a failure of
CurrentHourProvider, especially since this test specifically tests the
functionality of CurrentHourProvider and using EnvironmentEdgeManager to mock
time.
