--------------------------------
Summary: Get all tests passing on macOS
Key: KUDU-2715
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KUDU-2715
Project: Kudu
Issue Type: Bug
Components: test
Affects Versions: 1.9.0
Reporter: Adar Dembo
It seems that there are always a handful of tests that don't pass when run on
macOS, though precisely which set depends on the underlying version of macOS.
This taxes the release vote process, wherein macOS-based Kudu developers are
forced to figure out whether the test failures they're seeing are "known
issues" or indicative of problems with the release. Not to mention the
day-to-day process of developing on macOS, where you never quite know whether
your local work regressed a test, or whether that test was broken all along.
In the past we looked into macOS CI builds and found the situation to be fairly
bleak. Hopefully things have improved since then, but if not, I think we should
still get the tests passing uniformly (disabling those which make no sense) and
work in an ad hoc fashion towards keeping them that way.
