We turned it on in addition to Jenkins so that we could start finding issues exactly like the ones you described below to determine if Travis is going to be a viable option.
Basically it seems to me that the Travis environment is a little less predictable (probably because of virtualization) and this is pointing out some existing flakey-ness in the tests If there are tests that are regularly flakey we should probably file JIRAs so they can be fixed or switched off. If you have seen a test fail 2-3 times and then pass with no changes, I'd say go ahead and file an issue for it (others should feel free to chime in if we want some other process here) A few more specific comments inline below. > 2. hive/test usually aborted because it doesn't output anything within 10 > minutes > Hmm, this is a little confusing.

There is already machinery for doing this, we just need to flip the options on in the travis.yml to make it happen. This is only going to get more critical as we whitelist more hive tests. We also talked about checking the PR and skipping the hive tests when there have been no changes in catalyst/sql/hive. I'm okay with this plan, just need to find someone with time to implement it....
