Christopher Tubbs reassigned ACCUMULO-4305:
-------------------------------------------
Assignee: Christopher Tubbs
> ShellUtilTest broken
> --------------------
>
> Key: ACCUMULO-4305
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-4305
> Project: Accumulo
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: shell
> Reporter: Christopher Tubbs
> Assignee: Christopher Tubbs
> Fix For: 1.7.2, 1.8.0
>
>
> {{ShellUtilTest.testWithDecode()}} passes, even though the data it was
> suppose to be base64-decoding was never base64-encoded to begin with.
> It appears that commons-codec silently fails when trying to decode certain
> non-base64 data, which allows the test to pass even though it shouldn't.
> I noticed this while converting to use the Java 8 Base64 class, as
> recommended by modernizer-maven-plugin in ACCUMULO-4304
> I've fixed it in ACCUMULO-4304 for 2.0, but the test should be fixed in 1.8
> and earlier branches. The code itself didn't look like it was faulty, just
> the test, but the behavior of commons-codec in this case might affect users
> at runtime.
