Josh Elser commented on ACCUMULO-3871: -------------------------------------- bq. some of these tests have a lot of transitive dependencies (I'm looking at you, Kerberos). :smile:. Yeah, I know that Apache Directory pulls in a ton of deps just to get the MiniKdc functionality. It would be nice if we could work with them to pare that down in the future. {quote} So, the suggested way of fixing this would be to move the test/src/test/java code into it's own project, and move the classes from test/src/test/java to project/src/main/java. The fact that these two jars share the org.apache.accumulo.test namespace has already been an issue, so I had to stop Sealing the test-jar. So, I would like to move these tests to a new project (it-test? test-it? cluster-test?), and maybe shade in the dependencies so invoking the map-reduce job is simpler. I've never used shading before, so I'm not sure if this would be prohibitive. Of course, the test jar would not be in the accumulo-bin.tar.gz file unless we use a specific profile. {quote} At first read, it seems like if we could make a mapreduce-it module (or something) that just shades in the dependencies and test classes you need. Maybe you could keep the existing accumulo-test jar off of the classpath and that would prevent you from having to unseal the existing accumulo-test jar. Not entirely sure... this is the time I usually would ask [~ctubbsii] :P > run integration tests as a map/reduce job > ----------------------------------------- > > Key: ACCUMULO-3871 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-3871 > Project: Accumulo > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: test > Reporter: Eric Newton > Assignee: Eric Newton > Fix For: 1.8.0 > > Time Spent: 50m > Remaining Estimate: 0h > > When the functional tests were moved to java, we lost the ability to run the > tests via map/reduce.
