-----------------------------------
Summary: Implement mini cluster for Python
Key: KUDU-3470
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KUDU-3470
Project: Kudu
Issue Type: Task
Reporter: Marton Greber
The control shell concept has been introduced to simplify/unify the client
testing
(https://github.com/apache/kudu/commit/761ce10b797c4f6345f0b84cfe30bcc92e346893)
In Java a proper mini cluster has been implemented in MiniKuduCluster.java.
However in Python we only have a bare minimum cluster start/stop functionality,
with the option of hard coded default flags. There are many deficiencies for
example the inability to set custom flags on a per test case basis,
customise/interact with the mini cluster in an easy way.
This came up during testing considerations for JWT support. This is tightly
coupled to a proper mini cluster setup, as the mini cluster spins up to oidc.
Furthermore the jwt cluster object is necessary to create the jwt:

During these operations protobuf is used, which is to this point not introduced
to the Python testing infra (it uses JSON).
