Yang Chen updated MAPREDUCE-7359:
---------------------------------
    Description: 
h2. What is the purpose of this change

This PR is to fix 2 non-idempotent flaky tests:
{code:java}
org.apache.hadoop.mapred.TestOldCombinerGrouping.testCombiner 
org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.TestNewCombinerGrouping.testCombiner{code}
h2. Why the tests failed

For test {{testcombiner}}, it writes to the directory {{TEST_ROOT_DIR}} whose 
path is determined by UUID. When running this test twice, the {{TEST_ROOT_DIR}} 
created by the first running already exists, so the second running cannot 
create the directory with the same name, which will lead to a 
{{RuntimeException}}. This will pollute the shared state. It may be better to 
clean state pollutions so that some other tests won't fail in the future due to 
the shared state polluted by this test.
h2. Reproduce test failure

Run the test twice in the same JVM.
h2. Expected result

The test should pass without any failure 2 times.
h2. Actual result

Get failures:
{code:java}
java.lang.RuntimeException: Could not create test dir: /home/...{code}
h2. Fix

Fully delete the directory created for this test when it ends.
