> To properly verify that a particular version of HBase is good for production deployment we need a better way to do real cluster testing after incremental changes. Running unit tests is good, but we also need to deploy HBase to a cluster, run integration tests, load tests, Thrift server tests, kill some region servers, kill the master, and produce a report. All of this needs to happen in 20-30 minutes with minimal manual intervention. I think this way we can combine agile development with high stability of the codebase. I am envisioning a high-level framework written in a scripting language (e.g. Python) that would abstract external operations such as "deploy to test cluster", "kill a particular server", "run load test A", "run load test B" (we already have a few kinds of load tests implemented in Java, and we could write a Thrift load test in Python). This tool should also produce intermediate output, allowing to catch problems early and restart the test.
> No implementation has yet been done. Any ideas or suggestions are welcome.
