Aaron Kimball updated MAPREDUCE-1445:
-------------------------------------

    Attachment: MAPREDUCE-1445.patch

This patch takes the previous TestColumnTypes test and refactors it into an 
abstract class named ManagerCompatTest. This can be specialized on a 
per-ConnManager basis. The TestColumnTypes class is now the HSQLDB-based 
instantiation of ManagerCompatTest. This adds Oracle and MySQL-based tests as 
well.

The purpose of this patch is *not* to ensure that all databases import data in 
a byte-for-byte identical manner. Indeed, the datatypes supported by some 
databases are different than others. However, if a database supports some 
datatype, we must be able to verify that we can import it to HDFS in some 
recognizable representation. Therefore, there are a lot of hooks in 
ManagerCompatTest allowing subclasses to encode transformations from 
"canonical" expected results to the expected results particular to a database 
for some datatype.

> Sqoop's test suite is heavily biased toward testing with the HSQLDB embedded 
> database. This issue proposes to refactor some tests into abstract classes 
> which can be used as a basis for testing a variety of connection manager 
> implementations, ensuring better cross-database compatibility coverage.
