Ewen Cheslack-Postava commented on KAFKA-2581: ---------------------------------------------- [~ijuma] We should absolutely test that inter broker replication works with SSL. But that doesn't mean every test needs to run with and without SSL. In particular, as long as another test validates replication works *at all* with SSL, I'm not sure you gain anything by running replication_test under both modes. Would SSL introduce a failure mode, specifically for replication, that wouldn't exist in plaintext (that isn't just something like a config issue for the protocols the broker is using)? More specifically, suppose we add a test that's just validates data is replicated when it is produced -- not in the face of failures/broker restarts. This is probably a simpler, smaller test, and easier to debug if something *does* break with SSL. If that were there, would we want replication_test to run under anything but plaintext? > Run all existing ducktape tests with SSL-enabled clients and brokers > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-2581 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2581 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: security > Affects Versions: 0.9.0.0 > Reporter: Rajini Sivaram > Assignee: Rajini Sivaram > Fix For: 0.9.0.0 > > > New ducktape tests for testing SSL are being added under KAFKA-2417.
