             Summary: Migrating Junit4 to Junit5
                 Key: SPARK-44170
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-44170
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: Tests
    Affects Versions: 4.0.0
            Reporter: Yang Jie


JUnit5 is a powerful and flexible update to the JUnit framework, and it 
provides a variety of improvements and new features to organize and
describe test cases, as well as help in understanding test results:
 # JUnit 5 leverages features from Java 8 or later, such as lambda functions, 
making tests more powerful and easier to maintain, but Junit 4 still a Java 7 
compatible version
 # JUnit 5 has added some useful new features for describing, organizing, and 
executing tests. For examples: [Parameterized 
Tests|https://junit.org/junit5/docs/current/user-guide/#writing-tests-parameterized-tests]
 and [Conditional Test 
Execution|https://junit.org/junit5/docs/current/user-guide/#extensions-conditions]
 may make our test code look simpler, [Parallel 
Execution|https://junit.org/junit5/docs/current/user-guide/#writing-tests-parallel-execution]
 may make our test faster

 

More importantly, Junit4 is currently an inactive project, which has not 
released a new version for more than two years
