Brock Noland commented on MRUNIT-180:
-------------------------------------
Hi,
1) It appears the patch doesn't change the interface and as such is backwards
compatible?
2) Can you explain the unrelated changes in TestMapReduceDriver?
> Being able to use a comparator on runTest

> Sometimes using withOutput and runTest is not possible if the .equals method
> is not the correct way to compare equality. This is especially true for
> Mapper and Reducers that return doubles or structure with doubles in them,
> since there is no way to specify a desired error tolerance for the result.
> Being able to specify a Comparator for the key and value types enabled the
> usage of runTest for these cases.
