Konstantin Boudnik commented on BIGTOP-635:
-------------------------------------------

Sujay, I have quickly ran over the sample code. Pretty much +1 on BC's points. 
Also,

- packages in jave should have namespaces (like 
{{org.apache.bigtop.clustermanagement}} etc.
- term {{Shims}} doesn't exist really anyware outside of Hive and I am sure it 
was called so there for a simple lack of the proper name that is widely 
accepted in CS word. The name is {{Adapter}}

Other than that I can't comment much at this moment, because 
a) BC made fine points already
b) there's not much to comment on right now ;)

Thanks for start the ball rolling. I am sure this ticket will get a lot of 
attention.

> We've come to a point where our tests need to have a uniform way of 
> interfacing with the cluster under test. It is no longer ok to assume that 
> the test can be executed on a particular node (and thus have access to 
> services running on it). It is also less than ideal for tests to assume a 
> particular type of interaction with the services since it tends to break in 
> different deployment scenarios. 
> A framework that needs to be put in place has to be capable of (regardless of 
> where a test using it is executed on):
>   # representing the abstract configuration of the cluster
>   # representing the abstract topology of the entire cluster (services 
> running on a cluster, nodes hosting the daemons, racks, etc).
>   # giving tests an ability to query this topology
>   # giving tests an ability to affect the nodes in that topology in a 
> particular way (refreshing configuration, restarting services, etc.)
> Of course, the ideal solution here would be to give Bigtop tests a 
> programmatic access to a Hadoop cluster management framework such as 
> Cloudera's CM or Apache Ambari. 
> As with any ideal solutions I don't think it is realistic though. Hence we 
> have to cook something up. At this point I'm really focused on getting the 
> API right and I'm totally fine with an implementation of that API to be 
> something as silly as a bunch of ssh-based scripts or something.
> This JIRA is primarily focused on coming up with such an API. Anybody who's 
> willing to help is welcome to.
