Sean Owen commented on SPARK-9487:
----------------------------------
(Which thread?) I think that if you can get all tests in one language updated
uniformly to pass with a different number of threads, that would be a
sufficient unit of work to commit. I know it's not small. Or, maybe even a
couple modules along with associated test improvements that make them robust to
the number of threads. If you can get a significant logical chunk of
improvement working we can commit it as a step towards a resolution.
> Use the same num. worker threads in Scala/Python unit tests

> Project: Spark

> In Python we use `local[4]` for unit tests, while in Scala/Java we use
> `local[2]` and `local` for some unit tests in SQL, MLLib, and other
> components. If the operation depends on partition IDs, e.g., random number
> generator, this will lead to different result in Python and Scala/Java. It
> would be nice to use the same number in all unit tests.
