[DISCUSS] Run subclassed tests in StressNewTest

[Jens Deppe <jd...@vmware.com>]

Hello fellow Devs,

This is really more of a ‘heads-up’ message.

Some of our test code is codified in abstract classes that are then extended by other classes which, perhaps, do specialized set up or whatever. (The Redis team does this where we run the same tests against both native Redis and the Geode Redis implementation). A problem with this is that making a change to the actual test (in an abstract class) does not result in the classes being run by StressNewTest.

To that end I have a PR which will discover (and run) any subclasses of changed tests as part of StressNewTest. (https://github.com/apache/geode/pull/5601).

As an example, If I make a change to AbstractInfoIntegrationTest, StressNewTest will now run InfoIntegrationTest and InfoNativeRedisIntegrationTest.

Since we’re potentially going to run more tests, I’ve increased the maximum changed test threshold from 25 files/classes to 35. The overall timeout for the CI job has been increased from 6 to 10 hours.

Let me know if you have any concerns regarding this change, otherwise I’ll be putting it into effect in the next day or so.

Thanks
