---------------------------------
Those tests are not related.
> alter table should also add default scheme and authority for the location
> similar to create table

> When you call create table command (create table ... location '/abc') and
> check the database, you will notice that the table location has the scheme.
> While alter table set location '/abc' would throw an error "{0} is not
> absolute or has no scheme information. Please specify a complete absolute uri
> with scheme information. /abc".
> Seems it should be consistent.
