> The TestExchangePartitions tests revealed that NPE is thrown if the exchange_partitions method is called with null, empty or non-existing DB and table names. These NPEs could be prevented with a simple null check and a MetaException with a proper error message should be thrown instead.
> Example: NPE is thrown in the following test cases
>  * testExchangePartitionsNonExistingSourceTable
>  * testExchangePartitionsNonExistingSourceDB
>  * testExchangePartitionsNonExistingDestTable
>  * testExchangePartitionsNonExistingDestDB
>  * testExchangePartitionsEmptySourceTable
>  * testExchangePartitionsEmptySourceDB
>  * testExchangePartitionsEmptyDestTable
>  * testExchangePartitionsEmptyDestDB
>  * testExchangePartitionsNullSourceTable
>  * testExchangePartitionsNullSourceDB
>  * testExchangePartitionsNullDestTable
>  * testExchangePartitionsNullDestDB
>  * testExchangePartitionsNullPartSpec
