Sanjay Radia updated HADOOP-8487:
---------------------------------

    Description: 
Many tests use a test path intended for local tests setup by build environment. 
In some cases the tests fails on platforms such as windows because the path 
contains a c:


  was:
There is a number of tests that fail on Windows because Hadoop's distributed 
file system does not allow colon character in DFS paths. Specifically, passing 
in the following path to DFS:

{code}/c:/some/path{code}
would fail DFSUtil#isValidName check and cause the current operation to fail. 
Any test that is using local absolute path in the context of the DFS will fail 
because of this.

        Summary: Many HDFS tests use a test path intended for local file system 
tests  (was: Address test failures related to Windows paths not being valid DFS 
paths)
