Jothi Padmanabhan commented on MAPREDUCE-793:
---------------------------------------------

bq. This is beginning to sound more like a functional test then a unit test? 

True. Actually, quite a few tests in the mapred package are functional tests 
than unit tests -- they do some sort of end-to-end validation in the sense that 
they all launch a job and verfify some functionality on completion. It would 
need some refactoring of both the code and tests to make these real unit tests. 
Hopefully this will get done some time soon!

> There are few tests that just run similar jobs and test different 
> functionality. It would be useful to have a test that runs one job and tests 
> several of these functionality together so that this test can be included in 
> the fast commit-tests target.
