-----------------------------------
Assignee: Maxim Gekk
> Replace 3-letter time zones by zone offsets
> -------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-31237
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-31237
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Test
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0
> Reporter: Maxim Gekk
> Assignee: Maxim Gekk
> Priority: Major
>
> 3-letter time zones are ambitious, and have been already deprecated in JDK,
> see [https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/util/TimeZone.html] .
> Also, some short names are mapped to region-based zone IDs, and don't conform
> to actual definitions. For example, the PST short name is mapped to
> America/Los_Angeles. It has different zone offsets in Java 7 and Java 8 APIs:
> {code:scala}
> scala> TimeZone.getTimeZone("PST").getOffset(Timestamp.valueOf("2016-11-05
> 23:00:00").getTime)/3600000.0
> res11: Double = -7.0
> scala> TimeZone.getTimeZone("PST").getOffset(Timestamp.valueOf("2016-11-06
> 00:00:00").getTime)/3600000.0
> res12: Double = -7.0
> scala> TimeZone.getTimeZone("PST").getOffset(Timestamp.valueOf("2016-11-06
> 01:00:00").getTime)/3600000.0
> res13: Double = -8.0
> scala> TimeZone.getTimeZone("PST").getOffset(Timestamp.valueOf("2016-11-06
> 02:00:00").getTime)/3600000.0
> res14: Double = -8.0
> scala> TimeZone.getTimeZone("PST").getOffset(Timestamp.valueOf("2016-11-06
> 03:00:00").getTime)/3600000.0
> res15: Double = -8.0
> {code}
> and in Java 8 API
> https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/27980#discussion_r396287278
> By definition, PST must be a constant and equals to UTC-08:00, see
> https://www.timeanddate.com/time/zones/pst
> The ticket aims to replace all short time zone names by zone offsets in tests.
