             Summary: Improve integration tests between implementations
                 Key: PARQUET-1985
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PARQUET-1985
             Project: Parquet
          Issue Type: Test
          Components: parquet-testing
         Environment: 
{noformat}
*no* further _formatting_ is done here

            Reporter: Gabor Szadovszky


We have a lack of proper integration tests between components. Fortunately, we already have a git repository to upload test data: https://github.com/apache/parquet-testing.

The idea is the following.
Create a directory structure for the different versions of the implementations containing parquet files with defined data. The structure definition shall be self-descriptive so we can write integration tests that reads the whole structure automatically and also works with files to be added later.

The following directory structure is an example for the previous requirements:
{noformat}
test-data/
├── basic-data.csv
├── basic-data.schema
├── impala
│   ├── 3.2.0
│   │   └── basic-data.parquet
│   ├── 3.3.0
│   │   └── basic-data.parquet
│   └── 3.4.0
│       ├── basic-data.lz4.parquet
│       ├── basic-data.snappy.parquet
│       ├── some-specific-issue-2.parquet
│       ├── some-specific-issue-3.csv
│       ├── some-specific-issue-3_mode1.parquet
│       ├── some-specific-issue-3_mode2.parquet
│       └── some-specific-issue-3.schema

│   ├── 1.11.1
│   │   ├── basic-data.parquet

│   ├── 1.12.0
│   │   ├── basic-data.br.parquet
│   │   ├── basic-data.lz4.parquet
│   │   ├── basic-data.snappy.parquet
│   │   ├── basic-data.zstd.parquet
│   │   ├── some-specific-issue-1.parquet
│   │   └── some-specific-issue-2.parquet
│   ├── some-specific-issue-1.csv
│   └── some-specific-issue-1.schema
├── some-specific-issue-2.csv
└── some-specific-issue-2.schema
{noformat}
Parquet files are created at leaf level. The expected data is saved in a csv format (to be specified: separators, how to save binary etc.), the expected schema (to specify the data types independently from the parquet files) are saved in .schema files. The csv and schema files can be saved on the same level of the parquet files or upper levels if they are common to several parquet files.

Any comments about the idea are welcomed.
