             Summary: TestHTablePool hangs when run as part of runMediumTests profile
                 Key: HBASE-9146
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-9146
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: test
    Affects Versions: 0.94.10
            Reporter: Rajesh Venkatachalam


In the medium set, we found a test -'TestHTablePool.java' hanging and the build fails reporting a timeout. Though the test passes when run separately, while running the whole suite using the command " mvn -U clean package -Dhadoop.profile=2.0  -Psecurity -Dsnappy -P runMediumTests", this test is observed in a waiting state, tracking for the root region server.

It turns out be a problem with the test initialization. The class TestHTable​Pool contains a class TestHTable​PoolType which uses nested static test classes. But the initializati​on is being done for the outer class - TestHTable​Pool using @BeforeClass annotation. Surefire reruns the tests written in nested manner (for some reasons), and when this test is instantiated the second time, the method setUpBefore​Class() is not being called and hence the initializati​on is not done.


Guess that surefire tries to run TestHTable​Pool.​TestHTable​ReusablePool.​class directly. (Tried this by writing a separate program using JUnitCore.​runClasses(​TTestHTable​Pool.​TestHTable​ReusablePool.​class) and observed that the parent class's @BeforeClass method is not called.)
