[jira] [Commented] (KAFKA-2377) Add copycat system tests

["Gwen Shapira (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2377?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14642336#comment-14642336 ] 

Gwen Shapira commented on KAFKA-2377:
-------------------------------------

Two connectors that are not useful for anything except testing, but are very useful for testing:

* sequence source (i.e generate a number ever X ms and send to Kafka)
* log sink (i.e. write to a log what it is reading from Kafka. The equivalent of a console consumer)

This is independent of testing the connectors, but IMO it makes sense.

> Add baseline system tests for Copycat, covering both standalone and distributed mode.
> This should cover basic failure modes and verify at-least-one delivery of data, both from source system -> Kafka and Kafka -> sink system. This, of course, requires testing the core, built-in connectors provided with Copycat.
