[jira] [Commented] (BIGTOP-996) Document steps needed to run BT tests on a fresh host

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-996?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13777468#comment-13777468 ] 

jay vyas commented on BIGTOP-996:
---------------------------------

+1 I agree, but I think running all smokes requires customization, anybody (well, most people at least..) will not run them just as they are from head since everyone's cluster will have slightly different testing needs .

I have Something more detailed I've written up how I do it here 
http://jayunit100.blogspot.com/2013/07/customizing-apache-big-top-smoke-tests.html?m=1

Do you think this should be ported into a wiki, and if so, maybe I can just change my blog to link to the wiki page?

If so that would I think satisfy this jira?  Then I could link my blog to it so that I don't have to maintain instructions if they change :)

> I argue that a major part of becoming a contributor for Bigtop is a learning curve in how to use all the mechanics of the trade. I see this times and again.
> We need to have a HOWTO.txt document that would have a trivial description of the needed steps. Something like:
> sudo jenkins
> clone Bigtop repo
> mvn install top pom.xml
> mvn install itest 
> set HADOOP_CONF_DIR, HADOOP_HOME, HADOOP_MAPRED_HOME
> mvn install test-artifacts top pom.xml
> mvn install test-execution top pom.xml
> mvn -Dorg.apache.bigtop.itest.log4j.level=TRACE -f bigtop-tests/test-execution/smokes/hadoop/pom.xml verify
> That might be sufficient.
