Raghotham Murthy commented on HIVE-518:
---------------------------------------

one solution would be to provide another set option with the list of tables 
which should not be sampled in test mode.

set hive.test.mode.unsampled.tables=table1,table2

Another option might be to actually allow users to specify the entire 
tablesample clause for every table that needs to sampled in test-mode. But that 
seems like a lot more work for not a lot of additional benefit.

> It would be good to have a test mode in hive - this will help in checking the 
> validity of a hive drop on a production cluster.
> The following would be good to have:
> Testmode --> In testmode, all input tables are sampled (if not already 
> sampled) and all output tables are prefixed by a user supplied name.
> This way, multiple hive drops can be compared quickly for correctness
