[jira] Created: (ZOOKEEPER-394) Converting JUnit tests into TestNG controlled environment

Converting JUnit tests into TestNG controlled environment
---------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: ZOOKEEPER-394
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-394
             Project: Zookeeper
          Issue Type: Test
          Components: tests
    Affects Versions: 3.1.1
            Reporter: Konstantin Boudnik
             Fix For: 3.2.0


TestNG is a powerful test harness, which provides a lot of useful features like parallel test execution, test parametrization, and such.
ZooKeeper uses JUnit (v.4.4) environment instead which certainly should help to ease the conversion

I'd suggest to convert ZooKeeper's Junit based test infrastructure into TestNG controller environment, which will allow to achieve higher level of test execution control in the long run. 

The same conversion has been already performed for Avro project (see https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-26)

-----------------------------------

    Fix Version/s:     (was: 3.2.0)

not a blocker for 3.2, moving to 3.3

[jira] Resolved: (ZOOKEEPER-394) Converting JUnit tests into TestNG controlled environment

Patrick Hunt resolved ZOOKEEPER-394.
------------------------------------

    Resolution: Invalid

we will be staying with junit for the forseeable future. seems that not having "fork always" type functionality (which junit ant task has) was a blocker for hadoop at large (core/mr/hdfs/etc...)

[jira] Commented: (ZOOKEEPER-394) Converting JUnit tests into TestNG controlled environment

Konstantin Boudnik commented on ZOOKEEPER-394:
----------------------------------------------

Here's few advantages of TestNG over JUnit:
  - tests parametrization
  - parallel execution of tests
  - dynamic tests grouping and lists combinations
  - TestCase inheritance isn't needed, e.g. more flexibility for tests developers
  - elaborate listeners APIs
  - data providers API is available for even more complex data and parameters preparation for test cases
