Vadim Spector created SENTRY-1377:
-------------------------------------
Summary: improve handling of failures, both in tests and
after-test cleanup, in TestHDFSIntegration.java
Key: SENTRY-1377
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SENTRY-1377
Project: Sentry
Issue Type: Test
Components: Sentry
Reporter: Vadim Spector
Priority: Minor
1. TestHDFSIntegration.java should provide best-attempt cleanup in
cleanAfterTest() method. Currently, if any cleanup operation fails, the rest of
cleanup code is not executed. It does not matter only if all tests succeed. If
some do not, short-circuiting some cleanup logic tends to cascade secondary
failures which complicate troubleshooting.
2. Test methods would short-circuit closing database Connection's and
Statement's if the test logic fails. Moreover, some test methods have multiple
initializations of Connection ans Statement, but only one stmt.close();
conn.close(); pair at the end. Correct pattern would be for each distinct
{Connection,Statement} pair would be:
conn = null;
stmt = null;
try {
..... test logic here, including conn and stmt initialization ...
} finally {
safeClose(conn, stmt);
}
were
private static safeClose(Connection conn, Statement stmt) {
if (stmt != null) try { stmt.close(); } catch (Exception ignore) {}
if (conn != null) try { conn.close(); } catch (Exception ignore) {}
}
Testing jdbc driver implementation is not in the scope of HDFS integration
tests, so ignoring Connection.close() and Statement.close() failures should not
be a concern for this test class.
