Mit Desai commented on HDFS-5023: --------------------------------- Sure Jing. -Main reason for the test failure was JAVA Version. The test were written keeping in mind the nature of Java 6 where it would work fine. But with Java 7 running the tests in a random order, the tests would start failing. -The test creates files/snapshots during the entire test series. The problem was not cleaning these up. -When a test that created a snapshot ends, it was not actually deleting the snapshot and that was being misinterpreted by the test that would be running next and the assert was failing due to inconsistent values. -I think, making sure that the tests are independent of each other and that every test that makes any modification is just limited to that test would not give rise to such issues in future. > TestSnapshotPathINodes.testAllowSnapshot is failing in branch-2 > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-5023 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5023 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Bug > Components: snapshots, test > Affects Versions: 2.4.0 > Reporter: Ravi Prakash > Assignee: Mit Desai > Labels: test > Attachments: HDFS-5023.patch, HDFS-5023.patch, HDFS-5023.patch, > TEST-org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.TestSnapshotPathINodes.xml, > org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.TestSnapshotPathINodes-output.txt > > > The assertion on line 91 is failing.
