Christopher Tubbs resolved ACCUMULO-1996.
-----------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Fix Version/s: (was: 1.6.1)
1.6.0
Added javadocs to declare the intended scope. Actual cleanup of the usage of
this test class can be done in a separate issue which focuses on creating a
more flexible API for testing against a running instance or MAC.

> I did some work under ACCUMULO-1599 to split up the existing integration
> tests that use MiniAccumuloCluster into two separate groups for testing:
> those integration tests that require custom configuration and need intimate
> knowledge and control of MiniAccumuloCluster, and those that don't.
> Those that do, were configured to use ConfigurableMacIT, and those that don't
> were configured to use SimpleMacIT.
> The intention was that any test that did not need to control
> MiniAccumuloCluster itself, and only used the regular Accumulo API for
> executing its tests, could use a shared instance, represented by SimpleMacIT.
> Ideally, we would start this shared instance during the pre-integration-test
> phase of the build lifecycle, and leave it running until the
> post-integration-test. If this instance was not already running, a JVM-local
> one could be instantiated for the test to run (eg. inside Eclipse).
> An additional benefit is that we could easily transition these tests, through
> a single, centralized configuration option, to run against a full instance
> (not MiniAccumuloCluster).
> However, something changed, and some commits against ACCUMULO-1009
> reintroduced some of the complexity and exposed too much through SimpleMacIT.
> We need to document the intention and clean up this class to be simple again
> (with no knowledge of MiniAccumuloCluster underneath).
