----------------------------------------

             Summary: Use one policy editor exclusively in all the end to end tests
                 Key: SENTRY-6
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SENTRY-6
             Project: Sentry
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Sravya Tirukkovalur
            Assignee: Sravya Tirukkovalur


We are using multiple policy editors in the tests. It would be nice to consolidate the usage and just use one exclusively going forward.

I +1 to PolicyFileEditor, especially as it naturally fits when we want to handle both hadoop groups and local groups in our end to end tests. Something like: 

{noformat}
public void addPolicy(String line, String cat) throws Exception {
    if(hiveServer2Type.equals("UnmanagedHiveServer2") && cat.equals("users")){
      OSGroups.addMapping(line);
    }else{
    //add line to policy file
    }
    ...
{noformat}

Please let me know if any other Policy File Editors have any advantages over it.
