Dave Beech commented on MRUNIT-64:
----------------------------------

(I replied to this earlier on the dev list rather than JIRA, so apologies for 
duplicate comment!)

I'm still using the old API for most of my mapreduce jobs - we used to use 
Apache Hadoop 0.20.1 and the new API was embarrassingly incomplete and buggy. 
I'm aware that a lot of the missing features (MultipleInputs etc) have since 
been added in later versions but I've stuck with the old because I trust it 
more. 

Until the old API is killed off by Hadoop - and I don't mean the half-hearted 
deprecation that was reverted in the 0.21 branch - I think we should continue 
to fully support it on mrunit too.

> The comments on MRUNIT-14 brought up a great point. The API today only allows 
> a single key value pair input. In many scenarios multiple inputs would be
