Ashish Paliwal commented on FLUME-199:
--------------------------------------
Lot of tests already use findAvailablePort() API to get the port to bind to.
Can you elaborate what you intend to fix?
> Unit tests should hunt for available ports if defaults are in use

> Key: FLUME-199
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-199
> Project: Flume
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Test
> Affects Versions: v1.5.0.1
> Reporter: E. Sammer
> Assignee: Santiago M. Mola
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: v1.6.0
>
>
> Currently, some of the unit tests fail if flume is running while tests are
> running. This leads to false positives in failure detection and slows down
> the dev cycle as one has to remember not to run flume while tests are in
> progress. It would be an improvement to "hunt" for an open port if the
> default port(s) are already in use during testing.
