Sean Owen commented on SPARK-19592:
-----------------------------------

Isn't this going to mean changing every single test suite?
One hesitation here is that there are, probably, a number of instances where 
some test property should be set up globally, or across a large subset of 
tests. Ideally that's cleaned up all in one go or not. That is to say I could 
kind of imagine a broader cleanup and refactoring of test state. A big change 
just to remove a few lines of config doesn't seem worth it.

>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Tests
>    Affects Versions: 2.1.0, 2.2.0
>         Environment: Applies to all Environments
>            Reporter: Armin Braun
>            Priority: Minor

> This configuration for Surefire, Scalatest is duplicated in the parent POM as 
> well as the SBT build.
> While this duplication cannot be removed in general it can at least be 
> removed for all system properties that simply result in a SparkConf setting I 
> think.
> Instead of having lines like 
> {code}
> <spark.ui.enabled>false</spark.ui.enabled>
> {code}
> twice in the pom.xml
> and once in SBT as
> {code}
> javaOptions in Test += "-Dspark.ui.enabled=false",
> {code}
> it would be a lot cleaner to simply have a 
> {code}
> var conf: SparkConf 
> {code}
> field in 
> {code}
> org.apache.spark.SparkFunSuite
> {code}
>  that has SparkConf set up with all the shared configuration that 
> `systemProperties` currently provide. Obviously this cannot be done straight 
> away given that
> many subclasses of the parent suit do this, so I think it would be best to 
> simply add a method to the parent that provides this configuration for now
> and start refactoring away duplication in other suit setups from there step 
> by step until the sys properties can be removed from the pom and sbt.build.
> This makes the build a lot easier to maintain and makes tests more readable 
> by making the environment setup more explicit in the code.
> (also it would allow running more tests straight from the IDE which is always 
> a nice thing imo)
