[jira] [Commented] (CASSANDRA-12917) Increase error margin in SplitterTest

["Branimir Lambov (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-12917?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15863702#comment-15863702 ] 

Branimir Lambov commented on CASSANDRA-12917:
---------------------------------------------

Code looks good.

However, raising the margin decreases the flakiness, but I'm not sure it eliminates it. In such cases I personally prefer to have a large number of points in the individual test (which this already has), a fixed seed, and a lower error margin.

> SplitterTest is a randomized test - it generates random tokens and splits the ranges in equal parts. Since it is random we sometimes get very big vnodes right where we want a split and that makes the split unbalanced
> Bumping the error margin a bit will avoid these false positives.
