David Chen commented on HIVE-7286:
----------------------------------
Thanks for your feedback, Szehon.
I also think that this patch will be much cleaner once HIVE-5976 is done. Do we
expect that it will be committed soon?
For SERDEUSINGMETASTOREFORSCHEMA, do you mean that we can use it to have the
AvroSerDe use the metastore schema and not have to specify an Avro schema?

> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Test
> Components: HCatalog

> Currently, HCatMapReduceTest, which is extended by the following test suites:
> * TestHCatDynamicPartitioned
> * TestHCatNonPartitioned
> * TestHCatPartitioned
> * TestHCatExternalDynamicPartitioned
> * TestHCatExternalNonPartitioned
> * TestHCatExternalPartitioned
> * TestHCatMutableDynamicPartitioned
> * TestHCatMutableNonPartitioned
> * TestHCatMutablePartitioned
> These tests run against RCFile. Currently, only TestHCatDynamicPartitioned is
> run against any other storage format (ORC).
> Ideally, HCatalog should be tested against all storage formats supported by
> Hive. The easiest way to accomplish this is to turn HCatMapReduceTest into a
> parameterized test fixture that enumerates all Hive storage formats. Until
> HIVE-5976 is implemented, we would need to manually create the mapping of
> SerDe to InputFormat and OutputFormat. This way, we can explicitly keep track
> of which storage formats currently work with HCatalog or which ones are
> untested or have test failures. The test fixture should also use Reflection
> to find all classes in the classpath that implements the SerDe interface and
> raise a failure if any of them are not enumerated.
