[DISCUSS] Help adding a check for localization edge cases in our current test suites?

[Sean Busbey <bu...@apache.org>]

Hi folks!

This comment from Chia-Ping on HBASE-19020 has me thinking:

I wonder how many more of our tests rely incorrectly on the
localization settings being set to American English.

Would any of our folks who normally work with a locale that isn't
American English be willing to help me get a test set up (maybe in our
nightly runs?) that tries to catch these kinds of issues?

I don't think so.

Was there ever a JIRA filed for this? I have some ideas on how we can
implement it...

File an issue and post what to do there? I think there are plenty of
Chinese contributors in our community, although some of them may also use
English locale :)
