> Key: SENTRY-1502

> Project: Sentry
> Issue Type: Test
> Components: Sentry
> Affects Versions: 1.7.0, sentry-ha-redesign
> Reporter: Alexander Kolbasov
> Assignee: Ruiming Zhou

> I noticed that multiple unit tests in TestSentryStore are not testing useful
> things. For example:
> {code}
> @Test
> public void testCreateDropRole() throws Exception {
> String roleName = "test-drop-role";
> long seqId = sentryStore.createSentryRole(roleName).getSequenceId();
> assertEquals(seqId + 1,
> sentryStore.dropSentryRole(roleName).getSequenceId());
> }
> {code}
> So this code only tests that there are no exceptions thrown. The assert is
> bogus - it tests that there was a single transaction in between which is a
> wrong test in the first place - number of transactions isn't a functionality.
> The test doesn't verify whether the role was actually created and whether it
> was correctly dropped. And it is similar for other tests as well.
