[FLINK-8336][yarn/s3][tests] harden YarnFileStageTest upload test for eventual consistent read-after-write ## What is the purpose of the change In case the newly written object cannot be read (yet, e.g. due to eventually consistent read-after-write file systems like S3), we do 4 more retries to retrieve the value and wait 50ms each. While this does not solve all the cases it should make the (rare) case of the written object not being available for read even more unlikely. ## Brief change log - let `YarnFileStageTest` try 5 times waiting 50ms each before giving up on retrieving a file that should have been uploaded before ## Verifying this change This change is a trivial rework / code cleanup without any test coverage. ## Does this pull request potentially affect one of the following parts: - Dependencies (does it add or upgrade a dependency): **no** - The public API, i.e., is any changed class annotated with `@Public(Evolving)`: **no** - The serializers: **no** - The runtime per-record code paths (performance sensitive): **no** - Anything that affects deployment or recovery: JobManager (and its components), Checkpointing, Yarn/Mesos, ZooKeeper: **no** - The S3 file system connector: **no** ## Documentation - Does this pull request introduce a new feature? **no** - If yes, how is the feature documented? **not applicable** You can merge this pull request into a Git repository by running: $ git pull https://github.com/NicoK/flink flink-8336 Alternatively you can review and apply these changes as the patch at: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/5601.patch To close this pull request, make a commit to your master/trunk branch with (at least) the following in the commit message: This closes #5601 ---- commit 9d7293fa7419344955e35851895a992af9eb09e4 Author: Nico Kruber <nico@...> Date: 2018-02-27T16:29:00Z [FLINK-8336][yarn/s3][tests] harden YarnFileStageTest upload test for eventual consistent read-after-write In case the newly written object cannot be read (yet), we do 4 more retries to retrieve the value and wait 50ms each.
