>                 Key: NIFI-3593
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-3593
>             Project: Apache NiFi
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Tools and Build
>    Affects Versions: 1.0.0, 1.2.0
>            Reporter: Puspendu Banerjee
>            Priority: Minor
>              Labels: build, environment, junit
>
> We should incorporate a capability to conditionally ignore unit tests which are not relevant to certain condition, environment, language, locale etc.
> For example, 
> # YUI compressor fails on windows
> # CEFParser fails on non-English environment and we are yet to get an updated version for that.
> Definitely, we can craft our test-cases to fit in, but that may lead to unintended foul-play. Instead of that if we run those tests in  a quarantine, still we will have a clear view of what ran and what not as well as we will be able to proceed through a green build. 
> As long as release management is concerned,  
> # we need to be very careful about choosing what to quarantine or conditionally ignore
> # we should have a clean quarantine before release for certain environment.
> I am thinking about some annotation driven solution like the below one, so that we can easily track it and report.
> {code:java}
> @IgnoreOn(since:Date, reason:String, conditionExpr:String)
> {code}
> The way Junit's *assume* or *assumeThat* works doesn't fit in directly.
> Looking forward for inputs.
