> We should added automated tests that check we are not adding backwards 
> incompatible changes to core APIs (e.g. HMS APIs, SerDe APIs, UDF APIs, etc.).
> Other Apache components, such as HBase and Hadoop already have existing 
> checks. They are largely based on the japi-compliance-checker: 
> https://lvc.github.io/japi-compliance-checker/
> The nice thing about the japi-compliance-checker is that it can identify an 
> interface as "any class with a specified Java annotation", so we can use the 
> compliance-checker to check for backwards compatibility of any classes 
> annotated with InterfaceAudience.Public
> Ideally, we can build this check into our pre-commit job, or get it into 
> YETUS, since we are already working on adding YETUS support to Hive.
