Bilung Lee updated SQOOP-449:
-----------------------------
Issue Type: Improvement (was: Test)
> Use regular expression to verify output in compatibility tests

> One of OracleCompatTest tests (timestamp2) fails w/ Oracle 11g XE. The
> problem is that the verifyReadback function in testutil does string
> comparison to verify output, but the output string does not exactly match
> with any of expected values.
> In fact, doing string comparison is problematic since newer versions of
> DBs/drivers may have different output formats, and this test will be broken
> again. The better way to write this test would be to use regular expression
> rather than string comparison. In addition, there are several tests where the
> output string is compared against multiple expected values until succeed.
> Using regular expression will eliminate multiple tries as well.
