Guangxu Cheng commented on HBASE-20243:
---------------------------------------
{quote} - don't we need shell test too?
- use a variable NUM_SPLITS=2 and use that in variable initializations and
asserts
- Add tests for cases when a) source table doesn't exist, b) destination table
exists. Basically, we should have tests for both success and failure
scenarios.{quote}
OK, I will add it.
bq. - Does it compile? I don't see FAMILY_0 and 1 in declarations in
TestAsyncTableAdminApi.java
FAMILY_0 and 1 have been declared in the parent class TestAsyncAdminBase.java
bq. - Any way we can refactor out the common code in test?
Let me try it.

> In the production environment, we need to create a new table every day. The
> schema and the split keys of the table are the same as that of yesterday's
> table, only the name of the table is different. For example,
> xxxxx_20180321,xxxxx_20180322 etc.But now there is no convenient command to
> do this. So we may need such a command(clone_table) to create a new table by
> cloning the existent table.
