Arpit Agarwal commented on HDFS-12711: -------------------------------------- I don't think committers are ignoring precommit run results. We usually try to rerun the failed tests locally to check if they are related to the patch. Being a manual process, it is time consuming and error-prone. I also don't think anyone is happy about the current situation. Over time we have come to rely on complex MiniDFSCluster-based tests over real unit tests and these tend to be flaky and fail in hard-to-debug ways. We probably need a community effort to revamp our unit tests. This will also require extensive refactoring of existing classes to make them unit-testable, a risky task in itself. > deadly hdfs test > ---------------- > > Key: HDFS-12711 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-12711 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Test > Affects Versions: 2.9.0, 2.8.2 > Reporter: Allen Wittenauer > Priority: Critical > Attachments: HDFS-12711.branch-2.00.patch, fakepatch.branch-2.txt > > -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: hdfs-issues-unsubscr...@hadoop.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: hdfs-issues-h...@hadoop.apache.org
