Chris Nauroth updated MAPREDUCE-4870:
-------------------------------------

    Attachment: MAPREDUCE-4870.1.patch

I noticed this problem on Windows, where the test currently fails.  The 
attached patch changes the test to poll for any of the terminal states: 
{{RMAppState.FINISHED}}, {{RMAppState.FAILED}}, or {{RMAppState.KILLED}}.  
Those are all of the terminal states, right?  After the loop, I added an 
assertion that it was {{RMAppState.FINISHED}}.  For extra safety, I also 
aborted the polling loop after a maximum of 60 seconds.

The test still fails on Windows on the new assertion.  We'll need to fix that 
later, but for right now, I just want to fix the infinite loop, which tends to 
ruin entire project test runs.

This patch can commit to trunk and then merge to branch-trunk-win.

> {{TestMRJobsWithHistoryService#testJobHistoryData}} has a periodic poll and 
> sleep after job execution, checking for the application state to reach 
> {{RMAppState#FINISHED}}.  If the job fails, then the application could be in 
> a different terminal state, and this polling loop will never terminate.
