Github user joshelser commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/accumulo/pull/254 > the replicate call takes in the ReplicaSystemHelper as an argument and I wasn't too sure how to go about creating an instance of that Nothing special, just instantiate it. It requires a `ClientContext` which you can also mock (the implementation just uses that to get at a `Connector`). It may make your life easier to break up `_replicate(..)` further - I think that would be good if it makes your testing even easier. ```java } else { span = Trace.start("WAL replication"); try { finalStatus = replicateLogs(peerContext, peerTserver, target, p, status, sizeLimit, remoteTableId, peerContext.rpcCreds(), helper, accumuloUgi); } finally { span.stop(); } } ``` This section is most of what you changed. What if you lift this into its own method, and then use that as the entry-point to test? Something like `replicateLogsWithTimeout()`..
