-----------------------------------

             Summary: Create MiniMRCluster version which uses the mapreduce 
package.
                 Key: MAPREDUCE-5165
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-5165
             Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: jay vyas
            Priority: Minor


The MiniMapRedCluster class references some older mapred.* classes.  

It could be recreated in the mapreduce package to use the Configuration class 
instead of JobConf, which would make it simpler to use and integrate with new 
FS implementations and test harnesses that use new Configuration (not JobConf) 
objects to drive tests.

This could be done many ways:

1) using inheritance or else 
2) by copying the code directly

The appropriate implementation depends on wether or not 

1) Is it okay for mapreduce.* classes to depend on mapred.* classes ?
2) Is the mapred MiniMRCluster implementation going to be deprecated or 
eliminated anytime? 
3) What is the future of the JobConf class - which has been deprecated and then 
undeprecated ?
