--------------------------------------------
Summary: pep8/flake8 checks for system tests
Key: KAFKA-5614
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5614
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Bug
Components: system tests
Affects Versions: 0.11.0.0
Reporter: Ewen Cheslack-Postava
Currently the python code for system tests doesn't have an checks on style.
Similar to checkstyle in java/scala, we should be checking the style for Python
code. These consists of at least 2 parts:
* Add the configs that allow you to run these checks
* Get the Kafka CI systems to run these as a regular part of the build process,
in addition to building & testing the java/scala code.
The latter is hard to estimate the effort for since it depends on what is
available on the Apache Jenkins slaves that we build on. Hopefully at least
python + pip would be there such that augmenting the Jenkins build to also run
flake8 wouldn't be too tough.
If it makes sense while doing this, we might also want to get Python3
compatibility and even just move to it being a requirement. Whether this is a
requirement for this JIRA might depend on the Apache jenkins environments and
what python versions they have available.
