stack updated HBASE-410:
------------------------

    Attachment: 410-v4.patch

Here is v4.  In the client package, it adds TestClient, TestGet, TestPut, 
TestHTable, TestListTables, all to TestFromClientSide test.  It also adds new 
TestAdmin to replace old TestHBaseAdmin with new junit4 version.

We probably don't want to make a few big long-running tests, or at least, ones 
that run too long.   Anything over a minute or two is going to be a bit of a 
pain methinks.

That said, TestFromClientSide, our new omnibus client-side junit4 test takes 
nearly 4 minutes now on my local machine.  The whole client package took 
13minutes up on hudson last time we had a successful build.

I'm going to commit v4.  Lets see how it does up on hudson compared to the old 
timings.

> The test suite takes a long time to run, and a lot of the time spent running 
> is really wasted on repeated startup and shutdown, waiting for asynchronous 
> events to occur, and production-tuned timeouts to occur. Additionally, we use 
> a MiniDFS instead of the local filesystem. 
> We should:
>  - Make whatever changes are needed to the local DFS so that it can run on 
> Windows and use that as the basis of all of our tests
>  - Minimize redoing expensive setup where possible by combining tests into 
> groups or suites that can share common setup
>  - Create a way of running all the parts (Master, Regionserver, Client) in a 
> single thread and explicitly advancing through necessary states so that we 
> can reliably and quickly get what we need tested accomplished
>  - Use smaller test datasets where it would make a difference (TestTableIndex 
> and TestTableMapReduce, I'm looking at you!)
> A faster test suite means faster turnaround on new patches, faster Hudson, 
> and a shorter patch queue. Not to mention less annoyance on the part of the 
> developers.
