Github user iraghumitra commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/metron/pull/803 I noticed that when I am running e2e test's, the comments that were added in the previous run are still visible at times. The e2e tests delete's all the comments that it added and the only way I can see this happening is if in the previous run of tests add comment was successful and remove comment fails. The best fix for this would be to clean the metron_update table before running the tests. Since we don't have a rest API's for Hbase I am looking at finding alternatives. For the time being, if you bump into this issue I request you to truncate the meton_update table manually.
