Hitesh Shah commented on TEZ-3131:
----------------------------------
bq. The string value of the config name is atypical of config names - e.g.
tez.test.root-dir. Perhaps something similar could be made available in a
common place for all tests with similar logic.
Most other tests actually just use the staging dir as is instead of overridding
it ( unless it is being overridden for an instance specific sub-dir of the base
staging dir). Also, TEST_ROOT_DIR is commonly used to denote ./target/ for unit
tests and never really used for a path on DFS when running an end-to-end job
test.
I went with TEST_ROOT_DIR as that is a similar approach used in
TestOrderedWordCount for override params mainly for testing purposes. I can
make the property name change to something such as
"tez.test-fault-tolerance.staging-dir" ( default value being ./tmp ). Would
that work?

> The path is hardcoded. For regression testing, it will be useful if it can be
> overridden via command-line if needed.
