Szehon Ho commented on HIVE-7291: --------------------------------- That first comment auto-formatted strangely, writing the same again in formatted blocks. With the new syntax: {noformat} qFileTests.propertyFiles.${propertyFileName}=${propertyFilePath} {noformat} The testparser will open the file specified at {noformat}${propertyFilePath} {noformat} and populate a list of {noformat}{propertyName,propertyValue}{noformat} Then If any qtest test-list specifies {noformat} ${propertyFileName}.${propertyName} {noformat} as an item, it will resolve that by looking up the corresponding propertyValue (list of tests), in the corresponding propertyFile. In the real example, propertyFile will be testconfiguration.properties added in HIVE-7258, and the propertyNames listed in that file are miniTez.query.files, minimr.query.files, etc. > Refactor TestParser to understand test-property file > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-7291 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7291 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: Testing Infrastructure > Reporter: Szehon Ho > Assignee: Szehon Ho > Attachments: HIVE-7291.patch, trunk-mr2.properties > > > NO PRECOMMIT TESTS -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
