> Upgrade to JUnit 4

> Key: HADOOP-4901

> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: test
> Reporter: Tom White
> Assignee: Alex Loddengaard

> Amongst other things, JUnit 4 has better support for class-wide set up and
> tear down (via @BeforeClass and @AfterClass annotations), and more flexible
> assertions (http://junit.sourceforge.net/doc/ReleaseNotes4.4.html). It would
> be nice to be able to take advantage of these features in tests we write.
> JUnit 4 can run tests written for JUnit 3.8.1 without any changes.
