anishek commented on HIVE-16642:
--------------------------------

* Wondering why the ReplicationV1BackwardCompatChecker is in 
hcatalog/webhcat/java-client/test, couldnt it be directly itests/hive-unit
* I was thinking a bit more about the test case itself with the 
@FixedMethodOrdering. I think calling the assertion method explicitly from each 
of the test cases would make it easier to identify which test case containing 
events has lead to a failure. I think there might be a way to achieve this 
using similar code as below example. Do let me know what do you think?

{code}

public class SampleTest {
  static class VerificationRule implements TestRule {
    static int a = 0;

    @Override
    public Statement apply(Statement base, Description description) {
      return new Statement() {

        @Override
        public void evaluate() throws Throwable {
          base.evaluate();
          a += 1;
          assertTrue(a % 2 == 0);
        }
      };
    }
  }

  @Rule
  public VerificationRule rule = new VerificationRule();

  @Test
  public void test1() {
    assertTrue(true);
  }

  @Test
  public void test2() {
    assertTrue(true);
  }
}

{code}

> We have a couple of new events introduced, such as 
> \{CREATE,DROP\}\{INDEX,FUNCTION\} since the introduction of replv1, but those 
> which do not have a replv1 ReplicationTask associated with them.
> Thus, for users like Falcon, we potentially wind up throwing a 
> IllegalStateException if replv1 based HiveDR is running on a cluster with 
> these updated events.
> Thus, we should be more graceful when encountering them, returning a 
> NoopReplicationTask equivalent that they can make use of, or ignore, for such 
> newer events.
> In addition, we should add additional test cases so that we track whether or 
> not the creation of these events leads to any backward incompatibility we 
> introduce. To this end, if any of the events should change so that we 
> introduce a backward incompatibility, we should have these tests fail, and 
> alert us to that possibility.
