I looked into this and we get the unit test error because the check here
isn't correct. So we get `sparkPackages` as `""` and in R the length of empty
string is not 0 but 1.
```
> length("")
[1] 1
```
I think we should instead check the length of `packages` to be zero ?
(`packages` is a list created by splitting the input in `processSparkPackages`)
