> I noticed that multiple unit tests in TestSentryStore are not testing useful things. For example:
> {code}
> @Test
>   public void testCreateDropRole() throws Exception {
>     String roleName = "test-drop-role";
>     long seqId = sentryStore.createSentryRole(roleName).getSequenceId();
>     assertEquals(seqId + 1, sentryStore.dropSentryRole(roleName).getSequenceId());
>   }
> {code}
> So this code only tests that there are no exceptions thrown. The assert is bogus - it tests that there was a single transaction in between which is a wrong test in the first place - number of transactions isn't a functionality. The test doesn't verify whether the role was actually created and whether it was correctly dropped. And it is similar for other tests as well.
