             Summary: Use tags to control which tests to run depending on 
changes being tested
                 Key: SPARK-10300
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-10300
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Build, Tests
            Reporter: Marcelo Vanzin
            Priority: Minor


Our unit tests are a little slow, and we could benefit from finer-grained 
control over which test suites to run depending on what parts of the code base 
is changed.

Currently we already have some logic in "run-tests.py" to do this, but it's 
limited; for example, a minor change in an untracked module is mapped to a 
"root" module change, and causes really expensive Hive compatibility tests to 
run when that may not really be necessary.

Using tags could allow us to be smarter here; this is an idea that has been 
thrown around before (e.g. SPARK-4746). On top of that, for the cases when we 
actually do need to run all the tests, we should bump the existing timeout.
