Hi bigtop ! FYI, there is a jira to generalize the filesystem tests, and there is the HCFS Wiki page which is here: https://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HCFS/
And martin has added some interesting updates to make the hdfs testing repository a little more accessible to the broader mapreduce / hadoop community, see https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-1032 In particular, by 1) removing the hard dependency on an hdfs shell, and 2) grouping tests differently Would love some feedback on this jira or maybe we could organize a time to discuss it more interactively, if it becomes more complex. -- Jay Vyas http://jayunit100.blogspot.com
