I’m in favor of it. If you check the PR it’s a few isolated script changes and 
all test-only changes. Should have low impact on release but much better 
integration test coverage.

Subject: [DISCUSS][K8S][TESTS] Include Kerberos integration tests for Spark 2.4

I'd like to propose including integration testing for Kerberos on the Spark 2.4 
release:
https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/22608

Arguments in favor:
1) it improves testing coverage on a feature important for integrating with 
HDFS deployments
2) its intersection with existing code is small - it consists primarily of new 
testing code, with a bit of refactoring into 'main' and 'test' sub-trees. These 
new tests appear stable.
3) Spark 2.4 is still in RC, with outstanding correctness issues.

The argument 'against' that I'm aware of would be the relatively large size of 
the PR. I believe this is considered above, but am soliciting community 
feedback before committing.
Cheers,
Erik
