Alan Gates commented on HIVE-9578: ---------------------------------- bq. What tests go into TestHBaseStoreIntegration vs TestHBaseStore. It seems like the tests added to TestHBaseStoreIntegration could be added in TestHBaseStore as well. Sorry, I missed this comment earlier. When possible I prefer adding tests to TestHBaseStore as it contains true unit tests that are easier to run and debug. However, TestHBaseStore isn't really working against HBase but against a Mockito imitation. This makes certain operations hard, like multiple gets and more complex scans. So those I tend to do in TestHBaseStoreIntegration, since it is going against a real HBase instance. I could of course enhance my Mockito hbase to handle all this, but at some point that seems to yield diminishing returns and just gets easier to put it in TestHBaseStoreIntegration. > Add support for getDatabases and alterDatabase calls [hbase-metastore branch] > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-9578 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-9578 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: Metastore > Reporter: Alan Gates > Assignee: Alan Gates > Attachments: HIVE-9578.patch > > > The initial patch only supporting getting a single database, add database, > and drop database.
