Summary: Conditionally Ignore Junit Tests Key: NIFI-3593 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-3593 Project: Apache NiFi Issue Type: Improvement Components: Tools and Build Affects Versions: 1.0.0, 1.2.0 Reporter: Puspendu Banerjee We should incorporate a capability to conditionally ignore unit tests which are not relevant to certain condition, environment, language, locale etc. For example, # YUI compressor fails on windows # CEFParser fails on non-English environment and we are yet to get an updated version for that. Definitely, we can craft our test-cases to fit in, but that may lead to unintended foul-play. Instead of that if we run those tests in a quarantine, still we will have a clear view of what ran and what not as well as we will be able to proceed through a green build. As long as release management is concerned, # we need to be very careful about choosing what to quarantine or conditionally ignore # we should have a clean quarantine before release for certain environment. I am thinking about some annotation driven solution like the below one, so that we can easily track it and report. {code:java} @IgnoreOn(since:Date, reason:String, conditionExpr:String) {code} The way Junit's *assume* or *assumeThat* works doesn't fit in directly. Looking forward for inputs. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
