--------------------------------------
Summary: [R] [CI]
Key: ARROW-16385
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-16385
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Continuous Integration, R
Reporter: Jonathan Keane
We have a number of locations where we skip parquet tests now that snappy is
built by default + we use it by default when it is built.
One recent example of needing to do this is
https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/13014
However, skipping tests like this is a little bit of misdirection, since we
aren't really skipping these because | when snappy is not available like the
helper suggests, just using that helper to _also_ skip when we know we are in a
sanitizer environment.
The ultimate answer to this, of course is to upstream the change
https://github.com/google/snappy/pull/148 though that's been sitting open for a
few months still.
In the meantime, what if we took out these skips and instead used uncompressed
parquet for reading and writting in some builds? This way we could make sure
that snappy was not running during sanitizer tests, but still have test
coverage for these code paths in other runs where we don't need to worry about
this sanitizer error in snappy.
https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/13014#discussion_r859970907 proposed one
way to do this in this one case, but we should do it more generally for the
other skips that we have had to add.
