Github user JoshRosen commented on a diff in the pull request: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/10835#discussion_r50808540 --- Diff: core/src/test/scala/org/apache/spark/scheduler/DAGSchedulerSuite.scala --- @@ -1606,6 +1574,25 @@ class DAGSchedulerSuite assertDataStructuresEmpty() } + test("accumulators are updated on exception failures") { --- End diff -- Clarification question: we're not trying to change behavior for user-defined accumulators, right? If I have a user-defined accumulator and my task fails, then the executor itself will avoid updates to the user accumulators by simply not sending updates for them? I guess this test is just checking that _if_ a failed task sends accumulator updates, then those updates are assumed to be ones that should be counted and are properly added? Might be good to add a one-sentence comment here explaining this if you also find this potentially confusing.
