Brock Noland commented on HIVE-4907:
------------------------------------

Just to clarify, the ambiguous way to use this would be as follows:

{noformat}
ant test -Dtestcase=TestCliDriver 
-Dadditional.testcases="**/TestNegativeCliDriver.class" -Dqfile=a,b,c
{noformat}

I am open to alternative ways to address this issue but if none is found I 
still think this patch should go forward. To know that the property 
additonal.testcases exists you'd have to be very aware of hive's build and test 
system in which case you'd know the above command was ambiguous.
                
> Allow additional tests cases to be specified with -Dtestcase

> Currently we only allow a single tests case to be specified with -Dtestcase. 
> It'd be ideal if we could add on additional test cases as this would allow us 
> to batch the unit tests in ptest2.
