Caleb William Rackliffe updated CASSANDRA-7466: ----------------------------------------------- Environment: MacOS 10.9.3, IntelliJ IDEA 14, Java 1.8.0_65 (was: MacOS 10.9.3, IntelliJ IDEA 13.1.3, Java 1.7.0_51) Reproduced In: 2.1.11 Description: I pulled down the source and followed http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/RunningCassandraInIDEA to import C* as an IDEA project. Everything in the tutorial works as it should, but when I tried to run the unit tests in {{test/unit/org.apache.cassandra}}, the suite failed a couple tests in, complaining that it couldn't find the {{system}} keyspace in {{build/test/cassandra/data}}. tl;dr static initialization makes it hard to run the unit tests in the same JVM The full story is that... 1.) When the first test in the suite is run, the {{system}} keyspace is created on disk and in the in-memory schema. 2.) Many subsequent tests, like {{BlacklistingCompactionsTest}}, remove the {{system}} keyspace directory (among other things) in {{defineSchema()}} with a call to {{SchemaLoader.prepareServer()}}. 3.) While these tests create the keyspaces they require, they do *not* recreate the system keyspace, and so they fail when they force a compaction or perform any other action that goes looking for it. You can run the suite with IDEA's class/method forking, and you get a little bit better results, but it still seems like this shouldn't be necessary. I guess there are two ways to fix it: 1.) We rebuild the system keyspace before for each test. 2.) We leave the system keyspace alone. I took a hack at #1 in the attached patch. It looks like it to fixes this specific problem, but I'm not super-believable in this codebase yet... was: Note: Instead of picking a version below, I'll simply note that I'm on {{trunk}} at commit {{c027183ea4e901cf1d44e06704f6d78f84405bb4}} I pulled down the source and followed http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/RunningCassandraInIDEA to import C* as an IDEA project.
