Priya, If you're trying to get unit tests running local spark contexts, you can just set up your spark context with 'spark.driver.allowMultipleContexts' set to true.
Example: def create(seconds : Int, appName : String): StreamingContext = { val master = "local[*]" val conf = new SparkConf().set("spark.driver.allowMultipleContexts", "true").setAppName(appName).setMaster(master) new StreamingContext(conf, Seconds(seconds)) } Regards, Bryan Jeffrey On Wed, Nov 4, 2015 at 9:49 AM, Ted Yu <yuzhih...@gmail.com> wrote: > Are you trying to speed up tests where each test suite uses single > SparkContext > ? > > You may want to read: > https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-2243 > > Cheers > > On Wed, Nov 4, 2015 at 4:59 AM, Priya Ch <learnings.chitt...@gmail.com> > wrote: > >> Hello All, >> >> How to use multiple Spark Context in executing multiple test suite of >> spark code ??? >> Can some one throw light on this ? >> > >
