David Chen commented on HIVE-7286:
----------------------------------
Thanks, Szehon.
I have uploaded a new patch with the code for enumerating storage formats into
its own utility class for better reuse with other tests. I have updated RB as
well.
> Parameterize HCatMapReduceTest for testing against all Hive storage formats

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7286
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: HCatalog
> Reporter: David Chen

> 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.
