Sean Busbey commented on HBASE-13126:
-------------------------------------

We reference HBaseTestingUtiltiy in our docs, most notably in the section where 
we explain how downstream folks should test their HBase applications (ref [ 
Integration Testing with a HBase 
Mini-Cluster|http://hbase.apache.org/book.html#_integration_testing_with_a_hbase_mini_cluster]).
 So we should def not stop supporting it.

I agree we should change around where things live. the hbase-testing-util 
module currently is just an aggregator. we could restructure to move these 
things out of the src/test in hbase-server to there. What version could that be 
in? Folks _should_ be using the hbase-testing-util as a dep, but might be 
relying on the hbase-server test-jar instead. I guess 2.0.0?

> Clean up API for unintended methods within non-private classes.

> Over in the review for HBASE-12972, [~enis] mentioned that one of the HBTU 
> methods wasn't intended for public consumption.
> Can we build a list of such methods across the API, appropriately annotate 
> them for 2.0, and deprecate them in earlier versions with a warning that 
> they're going to be restricted?
