stack resolved HBASE-19948.
---------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Release Note: In subtask, fixed doc and annotations to be more explicit
that test timings are for the whole Test Fixture/Test Class/Test Suite NOT the
test method only as we'd measuring up to this (tother subtasks untethered
Categorization and test timeout such that all categories now have a ten minute
timeout -- no test can run longer than ten minutes or it gets killed/timedout).
Resolving. All subtasks done. Let me know if I should keep it open lads

> I was confused on how SmallTest/MediumTest/LargeTest were being interpreted
> since HBASE-19873 where we added HBaseClassTestRule enforcing a ClassRule.
> Small/Medium/Large are defined up in the refguide here:
> [http://hbase.apache.org/book.html#hbase.unittests]
> E.g: "Small test cases are executed in a shared JVM and individual test cases
> should run in 15 seconds or less..."
> I've always read the above as each method in a test suite/class should take
> 15 seconds (see below for finding by [~appy] [1]).
> The old CategoryBasedTimeout annotation used to try and enforce a test method
> taking only its designated category amount of time.
> The JUnit Timeout Rule talks about enforcing the timeout per test method:
> [https://junit.org/junit4/javadoc/4.12/org/junit/rules/Timeout.html]
> The above meant that you could have as many tests as you wanted in a
> class/suite and it could run as along as you liked as along as each
> individual test stayed within its category-based elapsed amount of time (and
> the whole suite completed inside the surefire fork timeout of 15mins).
> Then came HBASE-19873 which addressed an awkward issue around accounting for
> time spent in startup/shutdown – i.e. time taken outside of a test method run
> – and trying to have a timeout that cuts in before the surefire fork one
> does. It ended up adding a ClassRule that set a timeout on the whole test
> *suite/class* – Good – but the timeout set varies dependent upon the test
> category. A suite/class with 60 small tests that each take a second to
> complete now times out if you add one more test to the suite (61 seconds > 60
> seconds timeout – give or take vagaries of the platform you run the test on).
> This latter change I have trouble with. It changes how small/medium/large
> have classically been understood. I think it will confuse too as now devs
> must do careful counting of test methods per class; one fat one (i.e.
> 'large') is same as N small ones. Could we set a single timeout on the whole
> test suite/class, one that was well less than the surefire fork kill timeout
> of 900seconds but keep the old timeout on each method as we used to have with
> the category-based annotation?
> (Am just looking for agreement that we have a problem here and that we want
> categories to be per test method as it used be; how to do it doesn't look
> easy and is for later).
> 1. @appy pointed out that the actual SmallTest annotation says something
> other than what is in the refguide: "Tag a test as 'small', meaning that the
> test class has the following characteristics: ....ideally, last less than 15
> seconds...."
> [https://github.com/apache/hbase/blob/master/hbase-annotations/src/test/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/testclassification/SmallTests.java#L22]
> 2. Here is code to show how timeout has changed now... previous the below
> would have 'run' without timing out.
> {noformat}
> @Category({SmallTests.class})
> public class TestTimingOut {
> @ClassRule
> public static final HBaseClassTestRule CLASS_RULE =
> HBaseClassTestRule.forClass(TestTimingOut.class);
> @Test
> public void oneTest() { Threads.sleep(14000); }
>
> @Test
> public void twoTest() { Threads.sleep(14000); }
> @Test
> public void threeTest() { Threads.sleep(14000); }
>
> @Test
> public void fourTest() { Threads.sleep(14000); }
> @Test
> public void fiveTest() { Threads.sleep(14000); }
> }
> {noformat}
