> I'd like to make the config a bit more "out of the box" for the common case of local cluster. This will include:
> 1. Fix cluster_config.json of migration testsuite, it has hardcoded path that prevents it from working out of the box at all. 
> 2. Use JAVA_HOME environment variable if "default" is specified and if JAVA_HOME is defined. The current guessing method is a bit broken and using JAVA_HOME will allow devs to configure their default java dir without editing multiple cluster_config.json files in multiple places. 
> 3. (if feasible without too much headache): Configure remote hosts only for test packages that will not be skipped. This will reduce some overhead in the common use cases.
