Vadim Spector updated SENTRY-1377:
----------------------------------
    Description: 
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 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.
