Allen Wittenauer commented on HADOOP-10854: ------------------------------------------- I think it's a problem because the people who will need unit testing the most are most likely the ones who won't have it installed. I mean, even simple things like "hey, keep the case statements alphabetized" has been an uphill battle. Manipulating global vars is downright dangerous for most of Hadoop's committers. > unit tests for the shell scripts > -------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-10854 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10854 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Test > Components: scripts > Affects Versions: 3.0.0 > Reporter: Allen Wittenauer > Assignee: Allen Wittenauer > Labels: scripts > Attachments: HADOOP-10854.00.patch, HADOOP-10854.01.patch, > HADOOP-10854.02.patch, HADOOP-10854.03.patch, HADOOP-10854.04.patch > > > With HADOOP-9902 moving a lot of the core functionality to functions, we > should build some unit tests for them. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
