Ashutosh Chauhan commented on HIVE-4675: ---------------------------------------- [~brocknoland] I think you should go ahead and create the patch. Lets not rip-off python ptest yet. Lets keep it around while we familiarize ourself with the new framework. > Create new parallel unit test environment > ----------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-4675 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-4675 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Testing Infrastructure > Reporter: Brock Noland > Assignee: Brock Noland > > The current ptest tool is great, but it has the following limitations: > -Requires an NFS filer > -Unless the NFS filer is dedicated ptests can become IO bound easily > -Investigating of failures is troublesome because the source directory for > the failure is not saved > -Ignoring or isolated tests is not supported > -No unit tests for the ptest framework exist > It'd be great to have a ptest tool that addresses this limitations. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
