> Each operator has visibility to the {{FragmentContext}} class. {{FragmentContext}} provides access to all of Drill internals: the Drillbit context, the network interfaces, RPC messages and so on.
> Further, all the code generation mechanisms require a {{FragmentContext}} object.
> This structure creates a large barrier to unit testing. To test, say, a particular bit of generated code, we must have the entire Drillbit running so we can obtain a {{FragmentContext}}. Clearly, this is less than ideal.
> Upon inspection, it turns out that the {{FragmentContext}} is mostly needed, by many operators, to generate code. Of the many methods in {{FragmentContext}}, code generation uses only six.
> The solution is to create a new super-interface, {{CodeGenContext}}, which holds those six methods. The {{CodeGenContext}} can be easily re-implemented for unit testing.
> Then, modify all the code-generation classes that currently take {{FragmentContext}} to take {{CodeGenContext}} instead.
> Since {{FragmentContext}} derives from {{CodeGenContext}}, existing operator code "just works."
