> The goal is to provide a simple xUnit framework that enables our Pig scripts 
> to be easily:
>   - unit tested
>   - regression tested
>   - quickly prototyped
> No cluster set up is required.
> For example:
> TestCase
> {code}
>   @Test
>   public void testTop3Queries() {
>     String[] args = {
>         "n=3",        
>         };
>     test = new PigTest("top_queries.pig", args);
>     String[] input = {
>         "yahoo\t10",
>         "twitter\t7",
>         "facebook\t10",
>         "yahoo\t15",
>         "facebook\t5",
>         ....
>     };
>     String[] output = {
>         "(yahoo,25L)",
>         "(facebook,15L)",
>         "(twitter,7L)",
>     };
>     test.assertOutput("data", input, "queries_limit", output);
>   }
> {code}
> top_queries.pig
> {code}
> data =
>     LOAD '$input'
>     AS (query:CHARARRAY, count:INT);
>      
>     ... 
>     
> queries_sum = 
>     FOREACH queries_group 
>     GENERATE 
>         group AS query, 
>         SUM(queries.count) AS count;
>         
>     ...
>             
> queries_limit = LIMIT queries_ordered $n;
> STORE queries_limit INTO '$output';
> {code}
> They are 3 modes:
> * LOCAL (if "pigunit.exectype.local" properties is present)
> * MAPREDUCE (use the cluster specified in the classpath, same as 
> HADOOP_CONF_DIR)
> ** automatic mini cluster (is the default and the HADOOP_CONF_DIR to have in 
> the class path will be: ~/pigtest/conf)
> ** pointing to an existing cluster (if "pigunit.exectype.cluster" properties 
> is present)
> For now, it would be nice to see how this idea could be integrated in 
> Piggybank and if PigParser/PigServer could improve their interfaces in order 
> to make PigUnit simple.
> Other components based on PigUnit could be built later:
>   - standalone MiniCluster
>   - notion of workspaces for each test
>   - standalone utility that reads test configuration and generates a test 
> report...
> It is a first prototype, open to suggestions and can definitely take 
> advantage of feedbacks.
> How to test, in pig_trunk:
> {code}
> Apply patch
> $pig_trunk ant compile-test
> $pig_trunk ant
> $pig_trunk/contrib/piggybank/java ant test -Dtest.timeout=999999
> {code}
> (it takes 15 min in MAPREDUCE minicluster, tests will need to be split in the 
> future between 'unit' and 'integration')
> Many examples are in:
> {code}
> contrib/piggybank/java/src/test/java/org/apache/pig/piggybank/test/pigunit/TestPigTest.java
> {code}
> When used as a standalone, do not forget commons-lang-2.4.jar and the 
> HADOOP_CONF_DIR to your cluster in your CLASSPATH.
