             Summary: TestProcessorLifecycle class causes brittle builds and 
appears to be an integration test
                 Key: NIFI-2610
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-2610
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Joseph Witt
             Fix For: 1.0.0


The tests in TestProcessorLifecycle appear to be attempting to replicate 
various threading scenarios.  Such tests are notoriously difficult to get right 
and indeed the build is brittle as a result.  These tests are likely valuable 
and should be improved but they also should be considered integration tests it 
appears.

Tests run: 16, Failures: 1, Errors: 0, Skipped: 0, Time elapsed: 42.708 sec <<<

Brittle tests like this risk the build process which harms the review cycle and 
complicates release voting.
