Chris Douglas commented on HADOOP-7019:
---------------------------------------
This is losing focus. The issue is trying to shorten cross-project build times.
It takes no position on the value of the work done during a {{mvn-install}},
only its relevance to the immediate, development context. I hope the following
are uncontroversial:
# If test-patch takes an extra minute, 10 minutes, or hour to verify the
correctness of the framework, it's time well spent. That doesn't require that
it happen during development cycles, where things are often partially,
temporarily broken.
# A patch breaking the test-patch cycle prevents that automated process from
validating the framework, admitting preventable regressions. Patches that break
it should not be committed, modulo reasonable exceptions.
# If a patch _is_ committed that breaks the test-patch cycle, it should not
halt all downstream development.
I don't care if these are system tests, fault-injection tests, or unit tests.
They're taking a long time to build in an inner loop of the dev cycle, and
while building them _is important_, pulling it into the outer loop- validation
of the patch- is an admissible optimization.
