Rajini Sivaram created KAFKA-5244: ------------------------------------- Summary: Tests which delete singleton metrics break subsequent metrics tests Key: KAFKA-5244 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5244 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Bug Components: core Reporter: Rajini Sivaram Assignee: Rajini Sivaram Fix For: 0.11.0.0
Static metrics like {{BrokerTopicStats.ReplicationBytesInPerSec}} are created in a singleton, resulting in one metric being created in a JVM. Some tests like {{MetricsDuringTopicCreationDeletionTest}} delete all metrics from the static metrics registry. The singleton metrics don't get recreated and subsequent tests relying on these metrics may fail. Singleton metrics make testing hard - we have no idea what metrics are being tested. Not sure we want to change that though since there is a lot of code that relies on this. But we have to fix tests to ensure that metrics are left in a good state. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
