[jira] Commented: (HADOOP-6725) Evaluate HtmlUnit for unit and regression testing webpages

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6725?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12872071#action_12872071 ] 

Konstantin Boudnik commented on HADOOP-6725:
--------------------------------------------

Apparently, it worth mentioning that HtmlUnit requires xalan2.7. And that dependency can't be resolved with Ivy 2.0 (see IVY-1026)

> HtmlUnit (http://htmlunit.sourceforge.net/) looks like it may be a good tool to help unit testing and evaluating our various webpages throughout the project.  Currently this is done only occasionally in the code (usually falls to being a manual test during release cycles), and when it is done, usually the code to parse the webpage, etc. is re-written each time.  The framework is Apache licensed, so including it won't be an issue.  If it's found to be useful, new JIRAs for HDFS and MR should be opened.
