Konstantin Boudnik commented on HDFS-254:
-----------------------------------------
I've took a look at the test plan and I think it's overall complete. Do you
think it would make sense to try to create/delete a symlink with proper
permissions? Will it be the same as with a regular file?
> Add more unit test for HDFS symlinks

> HADOOP-4044 introduces symbolic links in HDFS. That patch has some unit tests
> associated with it. The aim of this JIRA is to add more unit tests (including
> negative tests):
> deleting a symlink that points to a file
> deleting a symlink that points to a directory
> symlink to a symlink
> any test cases with relative links
> delete linked to file, but not link, access link
> delete linked to file, recreate the same file, access link
> links to other filesystems
> archives containing links
> rename a file to an existing symlink
> rename a symlink to an existing file
> setTimes and setReplication cases should check the result on both the symlink
> and linked to file
> tests involving lack of permissions to create symlinks
> tests that try to createSymlinks with filesystems that don't support them
> ...
