             Summary: Test Coverage for Type Coercion Compatibility
                 Key: SPARK-22722
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-22722
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Umbrella
          Components: SQL
    Affects Versions: 2.3.0
            Reporter: Xiao Li


Hive compatibility is pretty important for the users who run or migrate both 
Hive and Spark SQL. 

We plan to add a SQLConf for type coercion compatibility 
(spark.sql.typeCoercion.mode). Users can choose Spark's native mode (default) 
or Hive mode (hive). 

Before we deliver the Hive compatibility mode, we plan to write a set of test 
cases that can be easily run in both Spark and Hive sides. We can easily 
compare whether they are the same or not. When new typeCoercion rules are 
added, we also can easily track the changes. These test cases can also be 
backported to the previous Spark versions for determining the changes we made.
