    Hi @fszabo2 ,
    
    If that's the case:
    Could you please at least add some information about the intention behind 
the values (A.K.A. explanatory comments by Uncle Bob), b/c right now for 
example if this test would fail I would not have much clue about what values do 
we have here, and why.
    
    I'm thinking about something like:
    this value is an int, XXX precision, so it should be YYYYY in Parquet/Hive
    
    or something like
    this value represents the biggest the longest possible values stored as 
type ZZZ, thus it contains N digits, and should be KKKK in Hive.
    
    Could we add these information, thus put these "Magic numbers" into a 
context?
