Jitendra Nath Pandey commented on MAPREDUCE-1566:
-------------------------------------------------

When credentials object reads a token from file, it clears all exisiting 
credentials. Therefore, merging the two will require another job and mapper 
implementation. It will be cleaner to have a separate test. Also, the mechanism 
to pass tokens via a file is not much related to TokenCache except that it uses 
obtainTokensFromNamenodeInternal method.

> Also, in the mapper, we should look at the credentials via the APIs (as is 
> done in TestTokenCache) instead of reading the file
The map task in the new test gets the tokens from credentials and verifies it 
against the token in the file, therefore it also reads the file.

> Need to add a mechanism to import tokens and secrets into a submitted job.

> We need to include tokens and secrets into a submitted job. I propose adding

> include the tokens and secrets from that token storage file.
