-------------------------------------
Summary: Specification for Executor and Task life cycles in Slave
Key: MESOS-1955
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-1955
Project: Mesos
Issue Type: Documentation
Components: slave
Affects Versions: 1.0.0, 0.23.0
Environment: all
Reporter: Bernd Mathiske
We should create a precise specification of what the Mesos source code is
supposed to be implementing wrt. the life cycle of executors and tasks. And in
addition, we should document why certain design decisions have been made one
way or another, to provide guidance for future code changes.
With such a source code-independent specification, we could write unbiased
regression and scale tests, which would be instrumental in maintaining high
quality.
Furthermore, this would make the source code more amenable.
Why pick this particular area of the source code? Shouldn't more of Mesos have
a thorough specification? Probably so. But we need to start somewhere and this
area seems to be a good choice, given both its intricacy and its importance.
