                 Key: PIG-148
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-148
             Project: Pig
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Xu Zhang


We may want to skip some of the building steps currently involved in running 
the Pig unit test with "ant test" to shorten the total time when possible.  
Presently, the build script spends long time on the init, compile-sources, and 
buildJar steps even when the test class and the jar files have already been 
built successfully before.  Could we add a check in build.xml to skip those 
steps if the class and/or jar files already exist?  If the use wants to 
re-build those files when running the unit test, they can first invoke "ant 
clean" which should be implemented in such a way that it cleanly removes those 
files.
