Hoss Man commented on SOLR-10834:
---------------------------------

bq. I am however still seeing some fairly consistent failure from SuggesterTest 
and it's subclasses  ...

I can not for the life of me explain how SuggesterTest manages to pass on 
master -- it has some wacky "reload the core" logic in {{testReload()}} that 
winds up creating a new core with the default {{solrconfig.xml}} and 
{{schema.xml}} instead of the {{*-spellchecker.xml}} files the core was 
originally using, and that new core with it's totally not the correct 
config/schema can wind up being used in other test methods that come later.  

Somehow, on master, where {{schema.xml}} was using an "int" id field this 
didn't manage to cause any failures, but in our SOLR-10834 branch where both 
schemas agree that "id" is a string we get problems.  I ripped out most of this 
hooky "reload" code and replaced it with {{TestHarness.reload()}} and all is 
right with the world.

At present, all tests & precommit pass on the branch ... i'll aim to squash 
merge it with master tomorrow.

> Apparently, once upon a time, as a way to prove that it worked and there were 
> no hard coded "String" assumptions, some the {{schema.xml}} used by tests was 
> written such that the uniqueKey field was definied as an "int".
> This has now snowballed such that there are at least 40 test schema files 
> (just in solr/core!) that define the uniqueKey field using a Trie field 
> (mostly TrieInt, but at least 2 TrieFloats!) despite the fact that at no 
> point have we ever recommended/encouraged people to use anything other then 
> StrField for their uniqueKey.
> that's nearly 1/3 of all the test schemas that we have -- which IIRC (from 
> some early experiments in SOLR-10807) are used in more then half the 
> solr/core tests.
> If we want to be able to deprecate/remove Trie fields in favor of point 
> fields, we're really going to update all of these test schemas to use a 
> StrField (we can't use PointFields as the uniqueKey due to the issues noted 
> in SOLR-10829) ... but AFAICT that's going to require a non trivial amount of 
> work due to many of these tests making explicit/implicit assumptions about 
> the datatype of the uniqueKey field (ex: sorting by id, range queries on ids, 
> casting stored field values returned by solrj, xpath expressions, etc...)
