             Summary: Multiple tests in TestSentryStore are not testing useful 
things
                 Key: SENTRY-1502
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SENTRY-1502
             Project: Sentry
          Issue Type: Test
          Components: Sentry
    Affects Versions: 1.7.0, sentry-ha-redesign
            Reporter: Alexander Kolbasov


I noticed that multiple unit tests in TestSentryStore are not testing useful 
things. For example:

{code}
@Test
  public void testCreateDropRole() throws Exception {
    String roleName = "test-drop-role";
    long seqId = sentryStore.createSentryRole(roleName).getSequenceId();
    assertEquals(seqId + 1, 
sentryStore.dropSentryRole(roleName).getSequenceId());
  }
{code}

So this code only tests that there are no exceptions thrown. The assert is 
bogus - it tests that there was a single transaction in between which is a 
wrong test in the first place - number of transactions isn't a functionality. 
The test doesn't verify whether the role was actually created and whether it 
was correctly dropped. And it is similar for other tests as well.
