Stamatis Zampetakis commented on HIVE-25668:
--------------------------------------------
To support reuse it would be necessary to extend the base functionality
introduced in HIVE-25594 to allow more databases of the same type to run side
by side.
> Support database reuse when using qt:database option
> ----------------------------------------------------

> Key: HIVE-25668
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-25668
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: Testing Infrastructure
> Reporter: Stamatis Zampetakis
> Priority: Major
>
> With HIVE-25594 it is possible to initialize and use various types of
> databases in tests. At the moment all the supported databases rely on docker
> containers which are initialized/destroyed in per test basis. This is good in
> terms of test isolation but it brings a certain performance overhead slowing
> down tests. At the moment it is fine since the feature it is not widely used
> but it would be good to have a way to reuse a database in multiple qfiles.
> The developper could specify in the qfile if they want to reuse a container
> (if it is possible) by passing certain additional options. The declaration
> could look like below:
> {noformat}
> --!qt:database:type=mysql;script=q_test_country_table.sql;reuse=true{noformat}
