Hi all, In CASSANDRA-16951 I have been working on a way to lower the time it takes to run python dtests in order to reduce CI consumption and cycle time.
The approach works by annotating test methods with a @reuse_cluster annotation. All the test methods following that initial annotation that use the same annotation will reuse that cluster. Therefore avoiding starting and stopping the cluster. My initial test show significant savings. From nice to (1h -> 45m) to great (10m->1.5m). The drawback of this approach is that it cannot always be used as it reduces test isolation. So it needs to be implemented on a per test basis. Before I invest more time on the ticket I would be interested in hearing your opinion on this approach. Thx in advance. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@cassandra.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@cassandra.apache.org
