-------------------------------------
Summary: Fix non-idempotent test in TestTaskProgressReporter
Key: MAPREDUCE-7311
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-7311
Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Zhengxi Li
The testÂ
{{`org.apache.hadoop.mapred.TestTaskProgressReporter.testBytesWrittenRespectingLimit`}}
is not idempotent and fails if run twice in the same JVM, because it pollutes
state shared among tests. It may be good to clean this state pollution so that
some other tests do not fail in the future due to the shared state polluted by
this test.
h3. Details
Running {{`TestTaskProgressReporter.testBytesWrittenRespectingLimit`}} twice
would result in the second run failing with the following assertion:
{noformat}
Assert.assertEquals(failFast, threadExited)
{noformat}
The root cause for this is that when\{{`testBytesWrittenRespectingLimit`}}
writes some bytes on the local file system, some counters are being
incremented. The problem is that, after the test is done, the counter is not
reset. With this polluted shared state, assumptions are broken, resulting in
test failure in the second run.
